    Use semantic enum entry names for pref indices
    
    [Commit message added by SGT: this makes it easier to allocate indices
    in the config_item array, and keep them in sync between get_prefs and
    set_prefs for each game.]

    slant: add preference: fading grounded components
    
    Commit message added by SGT:
    
    The general idea is that the puzzle constraint "you must not form a
    loop" can also be phrased as "every grid vertex must have a path to
    the boundary of the grid", on the basis that in a grid with every
    square filled, any connected component of vertices _not_ joined to the
    boundary by a path must instead be surrounded by a loop blocking every
    way it could get there. So by changing the colour of each
    "grounded" (connected to the boundary) grid edge, you draw the
    player's attention to the components that don't yet have a path to the
    edge, so they can consider the possible paths.
    
    This is the kind of hint that users can very easily find to be
    patronising and intrusive, not to mention a spoiler if they haven't
    even made the leap from "no loops" to "everything must be grounded".
    So it's a preference, and off by default.
    
    This patch is somewhat rewritten from the submitted version, to
    conform to local style and also compile in older C versions.
