## Description:
I believe many of the complains of the game being too slow in the
beginning is due to bots being stronger in v23 than v22. This PR weakens
bots significants and it feels much closer to v22.

## Description:
Reduces attack speed for large attacks. A further 10% increase in
attacker losses. minor 5% decrease in pop growth. Attacks against Terra
Nullius fade away as in v22.
This addresses the community poll finding that many players consider
current troop movements to be too fast. The latter two changes help nerf
attacking and slowdown snowballing.

## Description:
Original playtests mainly focused on balancing speed. This PR adjusts
attack losses further upwards for all terrain types by around 10%. Pop
growth is decreased by around 10% to slightly slow game tempo. Worker
growth boost is also weakened a bit to nerf super low troop meta
beginning. Slight 10% speed nerf at higher attack sizes. Port spawn rate
boosted.

Territory drawing are computing the same information for each pixel
drawn.
A few fixes can noticably improve the performances:
### Caching colors
some colors are computed each time they are retrieved, and according to
the profiler the border color is the most expensive to compute each
frame:

This PR adds a cache for this color. The other colors have almost no
impact on performance, so there's no need to cache them.
After caching:

### Retrieving player info
Drawing the player territory leads to unecessary and expensive data
gathering, such as the anonymous name list:

Instead, after retrieving the proper data directly:

## 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.

## Description:
Adds two fields to an Embargo :
- `createdAt` : the tick at which it was created
- `willExpire` : whether the embargo will expire on its own
An embargo will remove itself only if the player didn't intentionally
set it. It expires either when an alliance is made, or if enough time
has passed (according to the `embargoDuration` config entry).
I put 5 minutes for `embargoDuration` by default, which seems reasonable
to me.

## Description:
This PR does two things:
1. Allow pausing on replay
2. As part of the refactoring, in singleplayer games, LocalServer now
waits for the last turn to complete execution before sending the next
turn. Previously, low end devices would sometimes fall behind getting
the "playing the past" bug where commands were delayed. Now when a
devices cannot keep up, the entire game slows down.
