R. Timothy Edwards 9ab7b77dc4 Thought better about suddenly changing the .mag file format with
new properties, so created a "property compat" setting and made
it TRUE by default.  This makes magic print all properties as
type "string" on output into a .mag file.  Which is fine, since
it converts all values to the right type on input anyway.  The
only thing that backwards-compatibility mode prevents is user-
defined properties that are not strings.  That is a very rare case
and can be done by turning off comptability mode.  Some time in
the future compatibility mode can be changed to be default false,
but there's probably no real need to do so.
