## Description:
This change enables loop formation in the station network, allowing for
enhanced connectivity. However, it can sometimes result in clustered
areas as a trade-off. To mitigate excessive clustering, loops are only
permitted when there are at least 5 intermediary stations between the
source and destination stations.
Also a few fixes for `.dev` players.

## Description:
Add a rail network to handle train stations/railroad between structures.
Changes:
- `RailNetwork` is responsible for the train station graph. Use it to
connect new `TrainStations`
- A `RailRoad` connects two `TrainStation`
- No loop possible in the rail network
- Train stations handles its railroads
- Added a layer to draw the railroads under the structures
#### Clusters
- To speed up computations, each `TrainStation` references its own
cluster
- A cluster is a list of `TrainStation` connected with each other,
created by the `RailNetwork` when connecting the station
- Train stations spawn trains randomly depending on its current cluster
size
- A `TrainStation` decides randomly of the train destination by picking
one from the cluster
#### Production building:
- Added a factory which has no gameplay impact currently. _To be
discussed._
#### Train stops:
- When a train reaches a factory, it's filled with a "cargo". The loaded
trains has no impact currently. _To be discussed._
- When a train reaches a city, the player earn 10k gold
- When a train reaches a port, it sends a new tradeship if possible
- If a destination/source is destroyed, the train & railroad are deleted
too
