create implication belly_rolls (1879) -> belly (266037)

Reason: Trying to improve and simplify the variety of descriptive tags for fat characters. The flabby_* tags are aliased to *_rolls so to fall in line with the other fat_roll tags. All varieties of fat_roll tags imply fat_rolls. Cleaning up some other implications.

"Blobby" seems to be a workaround for hyper_fat being aliased away. Beyond that I have no concerns.

When I think of love handles in the fat sense, I imagine something more along the lines of slightly_chubby than morbidly_obese. Can't "love handles" also be used for well-defined oblique muscles?

This isn't implicating it to morbidly_obese?

If you look up "love handles" on google, every result is about getting rid of fat. Also, the belly_rolls tag doesn't necessarily mean the character is really fat. A slightly chubby character can easily have belly rolls or love handles.

I was not aware of the aliased hyper_fat tag, but the fact that there is no distinction between essentially a living pile of fat and a extremely fat figure that is still recognizable as a body is kind of ridiculous.

Yeah, it's not the best. The name using a medical term isn't the best either. There's been discussion about this and it really should be resolved.
