Properly fix 1987/lievaart invalid input checks

Now the game will re-prompt the player if invalid input is entered both
for the level and for the move. The way it was fixed is described in the
thanks-for-fixes.md file but here is a summary of the previous problem
and the fix.

If one entered an invalid level it proceeded to prompt for the move.
Thus if one entered '.' or anything other than a number it would still
move on. As for the move if one entered invalid input it would prompt
again but in an infinite loop, not letting one enter anything and
instead flooding the screen. The format specifier was thus a '%d'. Now
it's a '%2s' on a 'char A[100]'. After the scanf() it uses atoi(). For
the level it checks if > 10 || < 0 || !isdigit(*A) and if the if is 1 it
goes back to prompting the level. Of course since '-' is not a digit the
check for < 0 is superfluous but I did it anyway. Now prior to prompting
the level it zeroes out 'A' (*A='\0'). For the movement the do..while
loop condition checks for invalid input but it needed a scanf() with
"%2s" also and then use atoi() on the string (A). But in that case there
was no need to zero out the string (might not even be in the other but I
did it anyway).

Now as far as the level goes I checked for > 10 only because later in
the code it checks for < 10 and if so it increments it by 2 so I presume
that it's invalid if it's >10. This might or might not be correct but I
do not know the rules of the game and neither do I know the author's
intentions.

One more important point is that it does seem to stop playing the game,
making the same move again and again, but this might be another problem
or maybe it's a draw or something else. As I said I don't know how to
play the game so I can't verify it either way.

## [1987/lievaart](1987/lievaart/lievaart.c) ([README.md](1987/lievaart/README.md))
Cody fixed two infinite loops showing just `You:` by detecting invalid input
which the program was documented to do. But see [bugs.md](/bugs.md).
Cody added back the documented checks for invalid input which no longer worked
and instead resulted in either accepting the level, whether or not it was a
number or out of range (see below on range). For the move it entered an infinite
loop, prompting the player with `"You:"` but not letting the player input
anything so that the screen was flooded and the game could not play.
For both the level and move it did a `scanf()` with a `%d` specifier but this
resulted in, if invalid input, either proceeding (for the level), presumably
incorrectly done as it might not even be a number (see below) or printing
`"You:"` in an infinite loop, expecting input again but not letting the player
input anything, both as noted above.
The fix is that now the specifier is a `%2s` for a `char A[100]`. For the level
if `atoi(A)>10||<0` (see next part) or `!isdigit(*A)` it goes back and prompts
again. The level is checked for >=0||<=10, perhaps incorrectly or perhaps not, because
in the code that variable is checked for `<10` and if that is the case it is
incremented by 2. I do not know the rules of the game and neither do I know what
the author had in mind so I chosen 10 as the maximum.
As for the move the `do..while` loop works properly now that it does it in two
steps (`scanf("%2s", A); m=atoi(A);`) so there's no need to check the value
explicitly, again. Thus it will prompt until valid input is entered, but only
showing `"You:"` once per prompting.
In the case of the level prior to prompting for the level it does a `*A='\0';`
and in the case of the move it does it after the `m=atoi(A);`. This is done this
way because the check for the value of the level (`atoi(A)`) is done in the
`if()` that also checks for a digit (though it does `(u=atoi(A))>10||u<0` first,
thus checking the level, and `|| !isdigit(*A)`). Of course since `-` is not a
digit the `<0` is superfluous but it's done anyway. If that `if` is 1 then it
immediately goes back to the prompting of the level.
But for the move it can happen after due to the fact the condition of the
`do..while` loop will take care of things.
Cody also made this ever so slightly like the original code by adding back the
`#define D define` even though it's unused. This was done for both versions as
