As those who follow the IRC channel know, this bug has been fixed in
the meantime. It was caused by some missing data files.

Didn't get much further, but at least the next baby step is done. The
association between rpg and world character instance is now created
when a map is loaded.

Furthermore, I've eliminated the need for a reverse assocation in the
action scripts, so in total I've removed two more hardcoded items from
worldtest. There are still things remaining, but those can go too by
moving them into the appropriate put_state/get_state methods.
(Schedules and location for world::character, species and group for
rpg::character). I will get to that next.
