life forms or habits #25

This is useful in data federation activities because some people do lianas while others don't, etc., so we want that info to be kept to the end of the process, at least in our defaults.

The list of life forms is not complete or too clear, however. Add "hemiepiphytes". "Shrub" does not mean anything in particular, they are treated as multi-stemmed individuals based on their minimum dbh. As far as I know, nobody excludes shrubs per se.
