## Description:
Small-island removal previously ran only on the full-size terrain. The
compact (4x downscaled) map inherited that filtering before being
downscaled, which meant islands that survived at full size could end up
as tiny specks in the compact map.
This PR runs `removeSmallIslands` on the 4x terrain as well, with half
the threshold (15 vs 30 tiles), so very small islands are pruned in
compact maps while the full-size map is unchanged.

## Description:
This PR removes the nation strength. Reasoning:
- It is currently unused. The backstory can be found in #2498
- It forces map-makers to do balancing work, which is probably not a
good idea
- It increases map-making work
- It increases nation balancing complexity by a lot (we need to have all
the json files in mind)
- It makes humans avoid map areas completely because there is always
that one, same, strong nation
- The map lead Nikola123 wants to "not deal with the stupid nations and
their balancing"
If the goal of nation strength was to make them feel different I would
suggest a nation personality system. Nations that love to boat, love to
ally, love to nuke, love to fullsend, etc.

map and the Gulf of St. Lawrence map.
