Add Methods to Directly modify a boats velocity #127

Faster boats!

It would involve copying a 60-line function just to override it and change 2-3 lines. Or reflection. Will look into it.

All traits interacting with the Boat object should be able to change how fast it can go.

For example:

Boats containing Blocks can opt to move slower.

Boats made of rubber should go faster than their wooden, metal, and crystalline counterparts.

Actually, you can already do that using the update method I added. Just multiply the velocity by, say, 1.25, and the boat will go 25% faster, no matter how fast it would normally go. And, for self-propelled boats, just addVelocity() to make it go faster, or, if it would normally not move, make it move.

Fantastic!
