This was SVN commit r25658.
The pathfinder computations are run asynchronously (and potentially on
the main thread) in-between simulation turns, thus reducing
pathfinder-related lag considerably in common cases.
To make this most efficient, the number of paths computed during a turn
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.
Thanks to Kuba386 for maintaining & improving the patch in 2020
Thanks to everyone who tested the various iterations of this patch.

This was SVN commit r25657.
Tasks are simple callables (e.g. lambdas), and can be pushed with 2
priority levels. Pushing a task returns a future.
Futures can be waited on, can return results, and can be cancelled
deterministically. Futures can also not be waited on.
This gives 'hardware concurrency - 1' threads to maximize CPU usage in a
work-stealing workflow.

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'.
