Add swooping creatures as a base movement AI type.

Some basics:

* Charge attack state where they continue moving while deploying a hazard
* They can only change directions 45 degrees at a time, instead of turning completely around. Use dir_favor and speed variables to make them move in arcs.

This is mainly to implement "flying" creatures, but this base type can be used for ground-based creatures as well.
