[togos] [0.16.x] map*-settings.example.json out of sync with the UI

It would seem that the JSON files used for map generation on the command line are missing some things that are present in the UI. For example:
- Terrain settings: pretty much all of these are missing from the JSON files. I can't modify the frequency or size of the grass/dirt/etc.
- Water is present in the JSON, but... only one setting is there, and I can't tell if it's referring to frequency or size (which are the options in the GUI).
However, the JSON files also have a lot of options that aren't in the GUI. These options are awesome to have, and would probably clutter the GUI up considerably. So, personally: if the JSON files could be updated to contain every single setting, that would be neat. I don't think that all of these settings need to be mirrored into the GUI, though.

I've updated the autoplace_controls to add tiles in. water and terrain_segmentation are the 2 water controls. "water" is the size.

honestly, I have spend DAYS to only find out that this name is illogical.
terrain_segmentation SOUNDS like a frequency setting for changing eg. dirt and desert.
the water should use water_segmentation or water_frequency.

It has a history.
We have it on the to-do list to improve documentation and otherwise make the map generation controls more intuitive.
