zicodxx reports that f7d0c85 made the thief bot passive and timid.
His analysis suggests that the problem is because f7d0c85 changed
find_connected_distance to return vm_distance::maximum_value() in places
where it previously returned magic values that were not maximum (caching
a distance of F1_0*1000 and returning a distance of -1). Rather than
try to fix the underlying code that relied on these magic values, revert
those return paths to return these unusual values. Move the unusual
values to named constants in file scope so that they are easier to find
and correlate.

init_player_stats_new_ship used select_primary_weapon and
select_secondary_weapon to assign the player's weapons. However, those
functions read the current weapon and jumped according to its value. A
new ship has no defined value for current weapons, so the jump triggered
an uninitialized value warning from Valgrind.
Add new functions set_primary_weapon, set_secondary_weapon that work
like the previous select_* functions, but always take the path used
for weapons not equal, without checking. This prevents the warnings
from Valgrind, as well as a theoretical risk of initializing the ship
improperly.
An optimization meant to allow change_light to stop early caused it to
stop much too early, so it rarely did any work. Flip the sense of the
test so it does not stop early.

The declaration of valptridx_specialized_types needed to be found by
Argument Dependent Lookup, but this was inconvenient for some types.
Split the declaration of valptridx_specialized_types out from the
definition of valptridx global subtype.
