New terrain types:
- Arctic Coast: 2 commerce (like coast but -1 food)
- Atoll: 2 food 1 commerce, +100% improvement time (land tile representing Pacific atolls)

- Salt Flats: 1 production 2 commerce, +1 commerce next to rivers, costs 2 moves, +25% improvement time (desert alternative for variety)
