Playoff Fixes

Add an option to switch the subleagues' (and/or divisions' in 2-division setups) positions in the bracket each year, to allow for the pre-2003 format of awarding home-field advantage.
Add an option to avoid divisional matchups whenever possible.
Fix home field advantage in seeded playoffs. If two teams from the same subleague play, the better-seeded team should always have home field.
Add a 1a/2h/2a/2h format for best-of-7 series.
FIX HISTORICAL PLAYOFFS! In addition to the home field bug, best-of-5 series prior to 1998 (as well as in 2012) should have a 2a/3h format, and Division Series matchups from 1994-1997 should rotate by division instead of being based on record.
Add an option for "staggered" playoffs, where half the series begin 1 day later than the other half. It's possible manually right now, but I don't want to do it every year.
