New map! "Amazon River" 🏞️ (#2798)

## Description:

We didn't have a river map and we didn't have a map with a crazy size.
So I made a "Amazon River" map with a crazy size.
280 x 5536!
21 nations based on real locations.
Should be interesting gameplay because you don't have many attack
options, your only escape is the river.
The land tiles size is similar to the achiran and iceland map.

/>

Because the map is so wide, it looked really ugly stretched in the
thumbnails. So I added some CSS which removes the thumbnail stretching
of the Amazon River map. We can also use this logic for other thumbnails
which shouldn't get stretched.

In `Maps.ts`, `PublicLobby.ts` and `GameInfoModal.ts`.
