Angry War Geese (and Swans)

Description
Allows Geese and Swans to be War trained, as well as removes MEANDERER (To allow them to follow assigned military units properly) and adds the PRONE_TO_RAGE flag similar to badgers, honey badgers and wolverines. As they should be.

As requested: Version 1.1 adds a 'Giant' version of the goose. Giant and Man-types of these creatures will inherit these new rage traits; use this information to maximize fun.

Omg, I remember on my first ever embark years ago I brought some geese with the full intention of training them for war, and was incensed to discover that was not an option, so thank you for fixing an utterly unplayable game.

Ah, whoops. Good find. The undead version had a typo in it.

Geese and swans are not grazers, so their giant versions aren't either.

does the giant goose need grass to graze

Adding proper graphics for the giant version took longer than I thought, but it's in now. You only see its beak at the embark window because it's so big, but in-game it works properly.

Peace was never an option.

@Alyfox I actually was considering adding the Giant variant, but I didn't want to add too many things outside of the scope of "War geese". Maybe I could do an update if players want it?

It didnt occur to me to remove Meanderer from geese. I am also considering figuring out how to do Giant Geese. Cause EVIL.
