Fix #9281: acquire a company uses special bookkeeping to make you rich (#9300)

When you buy-out a company, you got your shares back. This is
based on company-value, which includes values for the vehicles etc.
In other words, you not only got the vehicles, but you also got
paid to get them back.

Additionally, you also got the loan of the company, but not the
money for the loan (as that is subtracted from the company-value).

Solve this by changing the rules of a buy-out: don't sell your
shares, get the loan AND the balance and get the infrastructure.
