Subject: [PATCH] fix: render spawn highlight on 1/5 frames instead of 4/5
 (#3782)

Resolves #3590

## Description:
The spawnHighlight() function in TerritoryLayer.ts was using `=== 0`
as the condition to return early, which caused the spawn highlight to
render on 4 out of every 5 frames instead of the intended 1 out of 5.
Changed `=== 0` to `!== 0` so the function skips rendering on 4/5
frames, improving performance especially on large maps.


## Please complete the following:

- [ ] I have added screenshots for all UI updates
- [ ] I process any text displayed to the user through translateText()
and I've added it to the en.json file
- [ ] I have added relevant tests to the test directory
- [x ] I confirm I have thoroughly tested these changes and take full
responsibility for any bugs introduced
