Group: fill in the latin.c validator function.

This actually fixes the example game id mentioned in the previous
commit. Now 12i:m12b9a1zd9i6d10c3y2l11q4r is reported as Unreasonable
rather than ambiguous, on the basis that although the solver still
recurses and finds two filled grids, the validator throws out the
nonsense one at the last minute, leaving only one that's actually
legal.
