## Description:
Introduces the Greek island, Lemnos, as a map. The island is both fun
and challenging to play (because of the terrain and elevation) and this
addition was inspired by Altis from the game [Arma
3](https://armedassault.fandom.com/wiki/Altis). The nation names are set
based on the real landmarks, towns, and regions.

## Description:
This PR implements a major refactoring of how map data is stored and
loaded, as described in #1242. Previously, map data (`.bin` files) was
bundled directly into the client-side JavaScript by Webpack using
`binary-loader`. This approach led to data duplication and increased
bundle/image sizes.
This refactoring changes the strategy entirely:
- `GameMapLoader` interface has been introduced to decouple the map
loading mechanism from the components that use it.
- New `FetchGameMapLoader` implementation loads map data by fetching it
from static server endpoint.
- Webpack configuration and `Dockerfile` have been updated to serve the
map files as static assets and to remove the source `resources/maps`
directory from the final image, thus eliminating data duplication.
This leads to several key improvements:
- Docker image size is reduced from ~750 MB to ~600 MB.
- Build time is decreased. On my local machine, the docker image build
time went from 48s to 43s.
Most of this speed-up comes from faster Webpack builds (reduced from 16s
to 11s), as it no longer needs to process large binary files. This
performance gain will be noticeable for all developers during local
development, not just in the CI workflow.

## Description:
Move map generation outside of main repo, it has been rewritten in Go
and is much faster. Also refactor how maps are stored, one dir per map.
The map binaries are basically identical to before. Some maps like
Africa have 1% difference in bytes, but playing it looks exactly the
same.
Use lazy loading for map data access so only needed files are accessed.
Unit tests now load map binary instead of regenerating it from scratch,
speeding them up.

## Description:
Implementation of separate lobby playlists, one for large maps another
for small, with the implementation framework being easily adjusted for
additional playlist categories in the future (such as fantasy maps).
Addition of new map 'Between Two Seas' a small map, replacing Black Sea
in the public lobby rotation (Black Sea retained for singleplayer or
private lobbies.
Adjustments to lobbyMaxPlayer configuration function. Broke out into
tranches by map pixel count, commented to communicate to other collabs
which tranch to place their map in. This change pairs well with the
adjustment to lobby map selection to alternate between big and small
maps. For the Potato (and mobile) players.
Revision to Mena, adding lakes and rivers.
Revisions to Japan, adding lakes and rivers, slight change of bounds to
include more mainland and less ocean.



The below no longer applies, I talked to Duwibi (Nikola123) who
explained the source of the issue is outside my control, but that he was
taking the action necessary to resolve.
The only issue still present after testing the the display of the map
name for Between Two Seas on the Public Lobby button. I've asked for
assistance with this issue on the Discord and will submit a fix as soon
as I can figure out its cause. Does not impact gameplay and its 3:30am
so hopefully this issue is not enough to prevent a merge as aside from a
quick fix PR, I don't think I'll be able to do any more work until after
this weekend.

There are fewer bots on the mainland, so taking control there can make
you more powerful.
To balance that, no rivers have been placed there, meaning you won’t
gain trade advantages from them.
The battlefield is split into two fronts, allowing for exciting
amphibious assaults with nuclear warfare.
I'm not sure about the white line on the map, but I don't think it's a
problem.

This map was made by mashing up the world map and putting it in the
general shape of the super-continent
[Pangaea](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pangaea) It's not super accurate
but the continents are generally in the right places and the nations are
more or less the same as on World, placed in the general location where
they would have been. Hope this is good enough to be added into the
game; even if only among custom lobby maps!
This PR adds full translation support for all out-of-game UI elements,
including the start screen, public/private lobby modals, and other
pre-game interfaces.
All static text has been externalized to en.json and ja.json for future
language support.
If you find any spots that are not yet translated (missing from the
JSON), please let me know.
Thanks a lot!
This is a follow-up to PR
