Change Two-Sided Table so that card orientation is based on viewer, not position #129

The current implementation of Two-Sided Tables reverses cards that cross the center line. This works for games without a spatial component, in which the side of the board nearest to you belongs to you, but does not make sense in Mage Wars, in which cards are free to move about the entire board. In real life, cards are typically oriented toward oneself. Therefore, I propose that the Two-Sided Table game option be modified so that the default orientation of each card is determined by its controller, and not its position.

This would have to be done in OCTGN itself not the Mage Wars Module. The game currently turns off two-sided tables in the game definition, as playing two-sided really sucks.

I think we could probably work around the Octgn code.
