Summary: DIG: Experimental camera fix

Initial Comment:
We have camera-related problems in The Dig, causing for
instance, bug #716350 ("DIG: Can't exit room!").
Another example of camera problems can happen at the
very beginning of the game: go to the room overlooking
the asteroid, where the actors are scaled down, then
open and close the inventory window. The camera pans
back to the shuttle.

You can then move Boston and the others back to the
shuttle while they are still scaled down, which could
make for a somewhat amusing blooper picture.

This patch fixes both of these problems - and hopefully
others, as well - by trying to ensure that camera._dest
and camera._follows never gets out of sync with the
SCUMM variables used to store these values.

But I don't know if this fix breaks anything else, so
at the very least it should not be applied to the
branch right now. Maybe later.
