bug#66173: [PATCH 0/2] unknown-horizons: Fix build, runtime errors

[Simon South]

This patch series fixes unknown-horizons, a real-time strategy game,
by applying upstream commits that allow the game and its engine to
build and run using recent versions of Python.

This also resolves issue #54815, "Unknown Horizons 2019.1 fails to
start"[0].

I've tested this on AArch64 and x86-64 and everything seems fine: The
game starts as expected using

  ./pre-inst-env guix shell unknown-horizons -- unknown-horizons
