4994be6e89 Latvian: finally handles PassV2 clauses in a more or less adequate way
Extends the previously introduced support for specifying the verb valence (verb-dependent subject and object cases), involving functions up to PredVP and RelVP.

In Latvian, the passive voice is not used if the agent (subject) is known; to preserve the information structure (i.e. the word order), a clause like 'A is <done> by B' is linearized in the active voice ('A <does> B') where A has the object case (e.g. Acc), and B - the subject case (e.g. Nom). Thus, the verb valence patterns are swapped on-the-fly.

This is still a rather quick & dirty implementation: parameters and linearization types have to be optimized (VerbLav), the use of PassV2 in AdvVP is problematic as it doesn't apply VPSlashPrep / ComplSlash, etc.
