Required for #44035. Move basic latitude code from server/generator/map_topology.[ch] to common/map.[ch]. The map_colatitude() function should remain in map_topology.[ch] to convert (signed) latitude into mapgen-internal, absolute colatitude.

This isn't as straightforward as I thought. Tile latitude depends on alltemperate and singlepole settings, which are only visible to the server.

I can see three options:

only check those settings on the server (for now) ~> no accurate latitude calculations in the client, which means we can't use it for requirements yet
resolve #44038 first and send its new settings to the client
send alltemperate and singlepole to the client (for the brief period of time before being replaced in #44038)

The latter option would probably be the most reasonable (albeit the silliest), although the first one could also work, given the temporary nature of the issue.
