Most uses of getrel() have been replaced by the safer relations_with()
in commit 0c60e57..67b9135, v4.3.27. Eliminate the remaining ones:
* Convert rela() to use relations_with(). The case of relations to
self, where the two differ, doesn't occur. The code becomes more
easier to understand, even.
* relations_with() is then getrel()'s last user. Inline.

Land units with capability security reduce the mobility cost and have
their military count double, regardless of efficiency. This lets
players get the benefits of a security unit at a discount: just don't
build it beyond 10%.
Count security unit's military times 1 + eff/100 instead of double.
Change the mobility bonus term from number of security units to sum of
security unit efficiency / 100. Partial fix for bug#64.

Infrastructure requires lcms and hcms to build. The build materials
are exposed as infrastructure columns lcms, hcms (struct sctintrins
members in_lcms, in_hcms). They are per point of efficiency. In
contrast, sector and unit build materials are defined for 100%.
We want to define build materials for 100% now, for flexibility and
consistency, and we want to optionally support more build materials in
the future. Replace members in_lcms and in_hcms by array in_mat[],
and provide selectors l_build and h_build.
Additionally provide selectors for all other item types, with value
zero, to help clients prepare for future additional materials. Use
CA_DUMP_ONLY to keep them out of configuration tables until they
actually work.

Infrastructure build cost is defined by infra column dcost (struct
sctintrins member in_dcost). It's the cost per point of efficiency.
In contrast, sector and unit build cost is defined for 100%, by
sect-chr, ship-chr, plane-chr, land-chr, nuke-chr column cost.
Switch to build cost per 100%, for flexibility and consistency:
replace struct sctintrins member in_dcost by in_cost, and selector
dcost by cost.
With cost values that aren't multiple of 100, the build cost may have
to be rounded. Do this exactly like we round sector build cost: the
amount is limited to money * 100 / cost rounded down, but the money
charged is actual amount * money / 100 rounded randomly.
Do the same for mobility use: replace struct sctintrins member
in_mcost by in_bmobil, and selector mcost by bmobil, with similar
rounding.

Assaulting a foreign sector with nothing but spies is special: the
spies sneak ashore. It is, however, more special than it should be:
the spies use no mobility and ignore landmines. They do use mobility
and hit landmines in other assaults. Assaulting your own sector with
nothing but spies is more costly and more risky than assaulting a
foreign one. This makes no sense. Has been that way since spies were
added in 4.0.0.
It's that way because sneaking ashore uses its own code to move the
spies instead of move_in_land() via att_move_in_off(). It can't use
move_in_land(), because that prints an unwanted "now occupies"
message, and destroys the list of assaulting units, which we still
need to catch and shoot spies.
Factor the code to move attacking land units to the target sector out
of move_in_land() into att_move_land(), and use that for sneaking
ashore. This makes the spies use mobility and hit landmines even when
they sneak.

People in sectors get plagued, then taxed or paid, then fed. People
on ships and land units get paid, then fed, then plagued. Sectors
were messed up when Empire 3 made the update code work for budget.
Change sectors back to how they worked before Empire 3: move do_feed()
from produce_sect() to prepare_sects(), and delay do_plague() until
after do_feed(). People in sectors now get taxed, paid and fed even
when they die of the plague, just like they do on ships and land
units.
Because do_plague() now runs after populace(), the latter's handling
of people dying off doesn't cover plague anymore. Delay it to the
very end of prepare_sects().
Additionally, move feeding and plaguing from upd_ship(), upd_land() to
prep_ship(), prep_land(), for consistency with sectors.

Ship, plane and land unit repairs depend on and change the state of
the sector. To predict repairs, we need to predict the state of the
sector before repairs. The obvious way to do that is to simulate the
sector update and all ship, plane and land unit updates there in the
correct order.
Until recently, we simulated only own sectors, ships, planes and land
units. Wrong when foreign sectors, ships, planes or land units are
involved. The fix (commit 70f6964) makes budget simulate all
countries. Correct, but does much more work than necessary. With a
little effort, we can track what needs to be simulated.
Use the bp map for tracking. We need to mark the player's sectors and
all sectors where he has ships, planes or land units. Do the former
in bp_alloc(), and the latter in prep_ships(), prep_planes(),
prep_lands().
Skip sectors not so marked. This requires delaying prepare_sects()
until after prep_ships(), prep_planes(), prep_lands(). Their order
doesn't actually matter: prep_ships() & friends only spend money, and
nothing in preparation depends on whether the country is still
solvent.
Skip ships, planes and land units in sectors not so marked.
This speeds up budget by around a third in my testing, more for small
countries. Roughly 15% slower than before the fix for repairs abroad.
The update has to do a bit more work than before, but the performance
difference is lost in the noise.

The update visits sectors in increasing order of country number.
Within a country, it visits in increasing order of sector number,
which is effectively top to bottom, left to right, starting with
absolute 0,0.
The order doesn't actually matter. Before Chainsaw's option BUDGET,
the update simply visited the sectors in sector number order. Go back
to that order, because it's faster. For the update, it's a few
percent in my testing. For budget, it's more than a third.

The update visits ships, planes and land units in increasing order of
country number. Within a country, it visits first ships, then planes,
then land units, each in increasing order of unit number.
The order is relevant when money, materials and work don't suffice to
build everything.
Money is charged to the owner, so only the relative order for the same
owner matters there. One order is as good as any.
Work and materials come from the sector, so only the relative order in
each sector matters. The current order unfairly prefers countries
with lower country numbers. Mitigating factor: the affected countries
need to be friendly (ships only) or allied.
The unfairness goes back to Chainsaw's option BUDGET. See the commit
before previous for more detailed historical notes.
The update test demonstrates the unfair behavior: sector 14,6 builds
ships 95/97 owned by country#1, but not 96 owned by country#7.
Likewise, planes 95/96/97 and land units 95/96/97.
Go back to the the pre-BUDGET order: first ships, then planes, then
land units, all in increasing order of unit number, regardless of
owner.
The update test now builds ship, plane and land unit 96 instead of 97.
Bonus: speeds up both the update and budget by a similar absolute
amount. For budget, this is roughly a factor of two in my testing.
For the update, which does much more, it's around 10%.

The budget command simulates an update by running selected parts of
the update code. It skips parts that depend on hidden information
such as guerrilla warfare. For speed, it also skips parts it doesn't
need, such as distribution and foreign sectors, ships, planes and land
units.
Skipping foreign sectors is wrong when any of the player's ships,
planes or land units will be repaired in foreign sectors, because it
makes budget use old materials and work instead of new.
Skipping foreign ships, planes and land units is wrong when they
compete with the player's for materials and work.
The bug goes back to Chainsaw's option BUDGET. See the previous
commit for more detailed historical notes. The update test
demonstrates it in several variations.
Fix it with the sledgehammer: don't skip foreign sectors, ships,
planes and land units. This makes budget almost twenty times slower
in my testing. Probably tolerable on a reasonably beefy machine, but
we can do better; the next few commits will claw back most of the lost
performance.

When option TECH_POP is enabled, the cost of tech increases when
civilian population exceeds 50000. Only civilians in old-owned
sectors count. This differs from education and happiness, where
civilians loaded on ships and land units count, too.
The update counts population for TECH_POP with count_pop(). This is
an extra pass over all sectors.
produce also uses count_pop(), once per tech center examined.
Wasteful.
budget avoids count_pop(): it uses tax()'s civilian count. More
efficient, but the difference to the update is ugly.
Change TECH_POP to use the same civilian count as education and
happiness, i.e. count civilians on ships and land units, too.
This count is available in nat_budget[] in time for produce(): it's
computed by tax() and by ship and land unit maintenance. So use it
there. This takes care of the update and budget. produce doesn't run
enough update code to do the same. Keep calling count_pop() there.
Update it to match the update, and give it internal linkage.
