Summary

Title ^. I believe we had something like that a long time ago.
Nowadays, if a unit paths towards a non-moving unit, it will first collide, so stop, then path around a turn later. This looks clunky.
By looking ahead, we can avoid the unit entirely and improve behaviour.

It is, however, a little slower.

Test Plan

Check unit behaviour when gathering resources, moving around. In general, this will only affect moving units that run into non-moving units, as otherwise Pushing does the trick.

I think a lot of players would be very happy with this, even it it is slower.
