(svn r2192) - Add greater control to the 'message options' window. Now you can turn off the telegraphc ticker sound for summarized messages, or turn off news-messages altogether (you get a red blot to notify you though). The [<][>] set the settings in one way, while clicking on the option itself, cycles it. This commit also 'fixes' bugs [1166973], [1121484] and patch [1169930].

- I also changed an order of strings from On, Off to Off, On, so this can be used ingame with the WWT_4 widget type.
- Since the newssettings now take 2 bits per setting (off/summary/on) _news_display_opt is widened to 32 bits and the settings code changed slightly to accomodate for a maximum of 16 message-types.
