Migration waves are wonky #382

Dwarves are not being properly divided into migration waves in the new version 
of DF.

There is no variable that holds the migration wave of a dwarf. DT calculates it 
by comparing ids and gaps in ids of the dwarfs in the creature vector. Since 
migrants in the new version are not generated when the imigration happenes but 
taken from the world, they have an existing lower id not according to the time 
they arrive. This would explain why the 7 starting dwarfs are in the same wave 
with the higest wave number (highes id = latest wave) and other dwarfs spread 
over many earlyer migrationn waves in the list.

Maybe it can be changed to work with the information on the arrival of the 
dwarf at the fortress you can find at the thoughts and preferences screen. (If 
this can be found anywhere...)

Actually, there is a variable now that shows when the migrants arrive. It's in 
the stats screen - v + z + enter. 

"He is a citizen of The Infinite Silvers. He is a member of The Towers of Ice. 
He is a former member of The Confusing Pillar. He is a former member of The 
Work of Bowing. He arrived at Edimetur on the 3rd of Felsite in the year 102."

Note the last sentence. Perhaps this could be utilized?

Finally found a fix for this. Dwarves keep track of their turns at the 
fortress, so I added a new turn_count offset, and migration wave calculation is 
based on groupings of turn counts.
