team bonus descriptions consistency

Summary

The descriptions of team bonuses were sometimes incorrect and sentences were often longer than necessary. This patch corrects mistakes and implements a standard format: [player] [class] [change] [attributes]. E.g.: "Allied warships −25% construction time." instead of "Ships construct 25% faster."
It also updates the team bonus descriptions listed in the civ.json files.

Test Plan

Check for typos.

Sounds pretty cool. Pinging @Gallaecio, @bb, and @elexis as it's still a big enough patch :)

Big enough? One line for each civ, two files each.

I really like the change, I just have some minor feedback for specific lines.

Shouldn’t it be ‘Allied markets +20% sell prices.’?

I would prefer this unrelated change not to be part of the patch, but if it does, I think this line should be last, assuming the new order is alphabetical.

No, that would imply this aura modifies the market, which isn't the case; barter prices are independent from specific structures.
Perhaps it would be better to omit the "at market", e.g. "Allies +20% barter sell prices." or something. What do you think?

Attributes are typically listed in alphabetical order, but resources have are listed in the way they are numbered and displayed in-game (f, w, m, s, t).

It is included in this patch because it's related. To start with,the current order of modifications is inconsistent with the practice of other teambonuses (e.g. brit), auras, technologies, and templates.
More importantly, what this patch does is make the description follow the modifications; in this case first the temple cost, then the tech cost multiplier.

You're right, I'll correct this.
