[RAS] RAS database corruption

[Christian Zimmermann]

RAS has a corrupted database. RAS still runs, but some series have become 
invisible to it and authors complain their profiles got emptied from those 
items. Trying to push them back (updareq) gets a response that they are 
already there, so nothing is done about it.

I tried to recover. It exits with no troublesome message, but verifying 
the database gives issues in ACIS/files and ACIS/records. I tried fixing 
them from dump, but dumping crashes. Backups have even more errors when 
verifying them.

At this point, I think I am left with having to rebuild the database. But 
I find no indication on how to do that.
