#2048: WaveMoL test gaussian.par uses uninitialized memory

WaveMoL's IDWaveMoL thorn only sets up ID on the current timelevel.
However the gaussian.par test using radiative boundary conditions which
require valid values on the previous timelevel. With PUGH it seems that
these values are usually zero (either because PUGH clears memory or
because malloc() does). With Carpet however, poisoning is the default and
one finds that NaNs show up from the boundary, one per timestep.
This can be avoided by setting mol::initial_data_is_crap = yes (or the
equivalent Carpet parameter if one uses Carpet) in the parfile.
