[GRASS5] floating AI ASCII GRID import

[Michael Barton]

I haven¹t had a chance to test this to see if r.in.gdal is the same as
r.in.arc. If it is, I agree completely that we need eliminate redundancy
where possible. Perhaps Maciek can test it as he seems to have a set of AI
ASCII grid files he is working with now. Let me know if it is redundant and
I¹ll take it off the input menu.

It would be nice on both GDAL and OGR to hit a button and get a list of
readable formats. Since GDAL at least generates such a list, this should be
doable.

Cheers
Michael
