FinishOrder called SetWaitingOnController, although the order
(constructing) had pushed another order (gather).
This is done now by telling we finished the order only when really idle.
This seems to boil down to the question: If we issued an order to a
formation, and its members have wandered off (imagine attacking an
entity and our members have finished the initial target but attack
nearby ones) do we want the whole formation to continue attacking or
execute the next order.
Also fixes reforming whilst attacking when an attack order was issued by
the player.

There appears to be an SDL issue with linux and X11 that causes Keydown

The typical bug case was:
- Open 0 A.D.
- Open another app
- Alt-F4 other app
- 0 A.D. immediately receives alt-F4 as well and exits.
Since SLD handles this hotkey natively via SDL_QUIT, it seems easier to

via MaxSameTurnMoves is reduced from 64 to 20.
This has a hard dependency on the obstruction manager (via the vertex
pathfinder) not being modified in-between simulation turn (or to put it
more generally on the simulation state not changing outside of turn
computation), otherwise results will be non-deterministic and go OOS.
This is currently entirely safe (as in, it indeed does not happen that
the simulation state changes in-between turn), but future work towards
improving simulation sandboxing would be good.

This was SVN commit r25657.
Prepare time is the time between an attack order and the arrows actually
flying.
Archers go from 500ms to 800ms standard, making them slower to fire than
other ranged units, and making them slightly harder to micro against
e.g. raids.
Javelineers go from 750ms to 400ms, for the opposite effect.
Crossbowmen, as a 'special' feature, get 200ms, meaning they fire their
first volley really fast despite their long repeat rate.
This also standardizes all javelineer units to have 1250ms repeat time.

The champions these structures built were not very usable in practice
because of their limited build rate.
Apadanas are a special case since they grant resources, their limit is
increased to 2 and their resource rate divided by two (this reduces
their economic impact early on, but increases their potential military
impact).
The preferred solution would be giving apadanas a pop count, but that
does not work very well right now given that they grant resources and
can still be built.

The introduction of "turn time" in A24 has been pointed out as a
gameplay change that made rushing less viable, and made the game more
turtley overall. Combined with other changes in the same direction, this
was seen by several top MP players as a step back.
Increasing turn times to 14 for infantry makes them somewhat irrelevant,
and a value of 10 for cavalry makes them noticeably more reactive while
keeping a little speed debuff.
Champions have a lower value, and heroes keep their lower values still
to prevent a reintroduction of 'dancing'.

Because the page stack is a vector, if during PushPage, a new page is
pushed, the vector may re-allocate. This 'pulls the rug out' from
underneath the code stack that originally pushed, which then crashes.
To fix this, use a deque, since push/pop won't invalidate references.

Following D3108 / 876f6d5e50, sounds are attenuated by their actual
distance. However, as noted by players on A24, the dropoff is stark and,
when zoomed out, can easily result in not hearing things that are
happening in the middle of the screen.
The new default settings almost double the max-range, change the minimum
range to have greater dynamic range, and reduce the stereo depth
slightly to better match the default camera FOV.
These are stored per sound-grounp, possibly allowing future tweaks on a
per-soundgroup basis, and are configurable.
