VariableVince a71ac7a218 Fix oversight: non-human player never responds to alliance renewal request (#1536)
## Description:

**--Fix oversight in v24--**
In v24, alliance renewal was introduced. But a Bot or Nation never
answers to it. So the Event Panel expiration message + clicking to Renew
and waiting, is all in vain if the other player is not a human. Like in
Single player in all cases. The message after ~30 seconds is always
"Alliance with xxx expired". This feels illogical and there's no purpose
for showing a Request to Renew button if it then always expires.

Also reported by players like here:
https://discord.com/channels/1284581928254701718/1284581928833388619/1398249123093676094

This PR fixes it by having the non-human reciever of the request, say
yes to depending on attiude towards the human and chance. This feels
more realistic.

The requestor is always the human player because they click a button in
EventsDisplay. So there is always already an extension request which the
bot can react to with another extension request to have the alliance be
extended.

**--Add tests--** 
It adds tests for extending alliance between human and non-human player.
One for AllianceExtensionExecution simply testing if alliance between
human and non-human can be extended. And one in BotBehavior, testing if
it correctly handles an extension request by adding a new
AllianceExtensionExecution.

**--Fix silent bug in existing test--**
Adding the new test for human and non-human for
AllianceExtensionExecution, i ran into a bug in the existing test for
extending alliance between humans. Which made the test always pass
because expirationAt wasn't fetched correctly. Had to fix that too,
without intending that for this PR beforehand. And then had to include
the bugfix from PR #1582 (v25) in it too to have the alliance actually
extended. More details below:

(-- The existing test would always return 'all passed' because it did
not get the expiresAt() but got the createdAt +
config.AllianceDuration() for both expirationBefore and expirationAfter.
createdAt is immutable so before and after would be the same. And then
it did not test for toBeGreaterThan, which would have failed. But it
tested wrongfully for toBeGreaterThanOrEqual which was a pass even when
the expirationBefore and expirationAfter would be the same and no
extension had taken place.

-- The bugfix from PR 1582 needed to be included now too. Because only
with those changes, the existing test has its alliance truly extended
and only with that the expirationAt actually changed. Actually, checking
if extend() was called isn't needed anymore, since we now check the
expirationAt correctly which on its own tells us if extend() was
succesful. But left this addition from PR 1582 in since it can't do any
harm.)

Project Governance

  • The project maintainer (evan) has final authority on all code changes and design decisions
  • All pull requests require maintainer approval before merging
  • The maintainer reserves the right to reject contributions that don't align with the project's vision or quality standards

Contribution Path for New Contributors

To ensure code quality and project stability, we use a progressive contribution system:

  1. New Contributors: Limited to UI improvements and small bug fixes only

    • This helps you become familiar with the codebase
    • UI changes are easier to review and less likely to break core functionality
    • Small, focused PRs have a higher chance of being accepted
  2. Established Contributors: After several successful PRs and demonstrating understanding of the codebase, you may work on more complex features

  3. Core Contributors: Only those with extensive experience with the project may modify critical game systems

How to Contribute Successfully

  1. Before Starting Work:

    • Open an issue describing what you want to contribute
    • Wait for maintainer feedback before investing significant time
    • Small improvements can proceed directly to PR stage
  2. Code Quality Requirements:

    • All code must be well-commented and follow existing style patterns
    • New features should not break existing functionality
    • Code should be thoroughly tested before submission
    • All code changes in src/core MUST be tested.
  3. Pull Request Process:

    • Keep PRs focused on a single feature or bug fix
    • Include screenshots for UI changes
    • Describe what testing you've performed
    • Be responsive to feedback and requested changes
  4. Testing Requirements:

    • Verify your changes work as expected
    • Test on multiple systems/browsers if applicable
    • Document your testing process in the PR

Communication

  • Be respectful and constructive in all project interactions
  • Questions are welcome, but please search existing issues first
  • For major changes, discuss in an issue before starting work

Final Notes

Remember that maintaining this project requires significant effort. The maintainer appreciates your contributions but must prioritize long-term project health and stability. Not all contributions will be accepted, and that's okay.
