Stop periodically rescanning game state in NameLayer and instead update the
expensive pieces once per game tick.
Changes (staged):
- Add tick-derived caches for first-place id + my transitive targets.
- Track nuke owners/“targeting me” incrementally from GameUpdateType.Unit:
- initialize once from current active nuke units
- apply per-tick unit updates to maintain `nukingPlayers` / `nukesTargetingMe`
- keep per-owner counts so multiple nukes behave correctly
- reset state if tick goes backwards (replay/seek).
- Rework player text cache to be tick-based (and font-aware) to avoid repeated
`renderTroops()` / `measureText()` churn within a tick.
Replace the DOM-based NameLayer overlay (per-player elements + icon <img>s)
with direct CanvasRenderingContext2D drawing in renderLayer(). This removes
layout/style churn and reduces per-frame overhead when many players are visible.
Key changes:
- Draw name, flag, troops, and status icons on the provided main canvas context
(no private canvas, no fixed-position container div).
- Add shared state caching (200ms): first-place player id, my transitive targets,
nuking players, nukes targeting me (for red nuke), dark-mode + emoji settings.
- Add per-player render caching for formatted troops + measured text widths,
and invalidate metrics on font changes to avoid zoom jitter.
- Re-implement icon rendering on-canvas:
- crown (first place)
- traitor icon with time-based alpha flashing ramping in the last 15s
- disconnected icon
- alliance progress icon via clip-fill (plus “?” overlay if extension requested)
- alliance request / embargo icons selecting black/white variants in dark mode
- nuke icon (red if targeting local player, else white)
- outgoing emoji (to AllPlayers / me) rendered as text
- target reticle overlay for transitive targets
- Add image caching for icons/flags and custom-flag mask SVGs to avoid recreating Image objects.
- Restore custom flag support for NameLayer: rasterize `!…` flags via mask compositing into an
offscreen canvas and cache per flag+size (animated colors re-render at a capped rate).
- CustomFlag: allow rendering without cosmetics metadata; align rainbow durations with CSS.
## Description:
Preparatory change for the upcoming “unbounded worker” work:
decouple expensive UI layer updates from game tick frequency by moving
UI ticking to wall-clock intervals. This reduces redundant UI work when
the simulation runs faster than real time (notably replays /
singleplayer at speed > 1) while keeping the UI responsive and
predictable.
## Changes:
- Add optional `Layer.getTickIntervalMs()` and enforce it in
`GameRenderer.tick()` using wall-clock time.
- Convert key UI layers from tick-modulus gating to fixed intervals:
- `ControlPanel`: 100ms
- `GameRightSidebar`: 250ms
- `MainRadialMenu`: 500ms
- `Leaderboard`, `NameLayer`, `ReplayPanel`, `TeamStats`: 1000ms

## Description:
Above or behind the player names on the map, there are icons (images
and/or emojis).
This PR also adds these icons to the PlayerInfoOverlay (on the right
side of the player name).
To share the logic, a new file PlayerIcons.ts has been created.

The alliance icon is NOT shown because it's already on the left side of
the alliance timer.
### Why is this change needed?
Sometimes you can't quickly find the nametag of a player on the map.
Especially if a player's territory is scattered around the map, maybe
even on several small islands.
But you still want to know if the player is AFK, has a traitor debuff,
etc.
So it's very useful to get this information by just hovering over a
player instead of needing to search for the floating nametag.

## Description:
Have the diplomacy view only draw border, not interior tiles. Drawing
the interior tiles is a very expensive operation and caused main thread
cpu usage to spike to close to 100%.
Also change the color scheme so that neutral players are gray, and
embargoed players are red. I think long term embargo should be more of a
war state.
Added embargo update and cleaned it up to use Player instead of
PlayerID. There's no reason to pass ids around.

## Description:
Alliance Request and Embargo icons now switch from white to black
according to whether dark mode is enabled.
*Dark mode off*
*Dark mode on*
## Potential issue:
The only caveat is that upon changing the theme when both icons are
displayed, the display order is not conserved, so they may appear in a
different order than before.
This seems however to be a very small use case, and rather insignificant
as icons don't have an order to begin with.
Do let me know if this is a problem though!

## Summary by CodeRabbit
- **Refactor**
- Unified and simplified how unit targets and cooldowns are managed
across all unit types, resulting in more consistent in-game behavior for
nukes, warships, trade ships, and SAM launchers.
- Updated naming and logic for unit targeting and cooldowns, improving
clarity in status displays and interactions.
- Reorganized unit interface and streamlined cooldown handling for
smoother gameplay experience.
- **Bug Fixes**
- Corrected visual indicators for nukes and warships to accurately
reflect their targets.
- **Tests**
- Updated automated tests to align with the new cooldown and targeting
logic.

## Description:
Improve type safety and runtime correctness by:
1. Enabling TypeScript's
[strictNullChecks](https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig/#strictNullChecks)
compiler option.
2. Replacing all loose equality operators (`==` and `!=`) with strict
equality operators (`===` and `!==`).
3. Cleaning up of type declarations, null handling logic, and equality
expressions throughout the project.
Currently, the code allows implicit assumptions that `null` and
`undefined` are interchangeable, and relies on type-coercing equality
checks that can introduce subtle bugs. These practices make it difficult
to reason about when values may be absent and hinder the effectiveness
of static analysis.
Migrating to strict null checks and enforcing strict equality
comparisons will clarify intent, reduce bugs, and make the codebase
safer and easier to maintain.
