Evan 182d008ddd Generate a single MapInfo list; move SPECIAL_TEAM_MAPS and en.json map names into info.json (#4231)
**Add approved & assigned issue number here:**

N/A — maintainer follow-up to #4227.

## Description:

Follow-up to #4227, finishing the "info.json is the single source of
truth" refactor.

**Maps.gen.ts now generates one `MapInfo` interface and a `maps` list**
instead of parallel lookup records. `mapCategories`,
`mapTranslationKeys`, and `multiplayerFrequency` are gone — consumers
read the list directly (`map.categories`, `map.translationKey`,
`map.multiplayerFrequency`). MapPicker got simpler in the process: it
renders from `MapInfo` objects, so the reverse
`Object.entries(GameMapType)` lookup to recover the enum key is gone.
The featured-rank sort moved out of the Go codegen into the picker,
where the presentation concern belongs.

**`SPECIAL_TEAM_MAPS` moves into info.json** as an optional
`special_team_count` field (set on the same 17 maps with the same
values). MapPlaylist derives its map from the generated list;
`SPECIAL_TEAM_FORCE_CHANCE` and the frequency multiplier behavior are
unchanged.

**The en.json `map` section is now generated.** A new optional
`display_name` field in info.json (defaulting to `name`) is written to
`resources/lang/en.json` by the generator, preserving the section's
non-map UI keys (`map`, `featured`, `all`, `favorites`, `random`). The 8
maps whose English display name intentionally differs from the frozen
enum value (e.g. `MENA`, `Milky Way`, `Europe (Classic)`, `Baikal (Nuke
Wars)`) declare it via `display_name`, so no display text changes. The
section is emitted alphabetically; since #4232 already sorted en.json
and every value matches, regeneration is byte-identical and this PR has
no en.json diff. Other languages remain Crowdin-managed.

The generator also now validates `translation_key` is exactly
`map.<folder>` and `special_team_count >= 2`. MapConsistency tests
compare info.json directly against the generated list and the en.json
section, and fail with a "run `npm run gen-maps`" message on drift. No
behavior changes: enum values, playlist frequencies, special-team
counts, featured order, and display names are all byte-identical.

## Please complete the following:

- [x] I have added screenshots for all UI updates (no UI changes —
internal refactor, rendering output identical)
- [x] I process any text displayed to the user through translateText()
and I've added it to the en.json file
- [x] I have added relevant tests to the test directory

regression is found:
