Add flag to action 433 to force MFE_VERTICALFLIP

sphere requested to merge forceverticalflipflag into next

This covers up an issue with !1808 (merged)'s "sticky ceiling" feature, implemented to make ERZ2's area featuring that gimmick support taller characters.

When walking out of a "sticky ceiling" area into a continuously triggering gravity flip, necessary for going from temporary to permanent reverse gravity, MFE_VERTICALFLIP was lost for 1 tic which caused the player to flip around for a split second. This branch allows the gravity flip action to force MFE_VERTICALFLIP, to sidestep that issue.

Ideally, this would be fixed at the core, but fundamentally changing how reverse gravity works is out of scope for a 2.2 patch, and this workaround is localized enough that it shouldn't affect any existing maps.
