Change Details

(technically not really a pre-req). The unit motion rewrite (D13) will change how speed is handled from an absolute value to a "ratio" over the walking speed, which I find easier to understand and less boiler-plate-y. We could alternatively remove all running capabilities, but the code needs to handle speed in the [0;1] * walk speed range for formation/group walk so it's not a huge hassle to have. Can be committed independently if this works correctly indeed, it's been split from a squashed D13 patch so there might be some slight incompatibility issues I haven't noticed but I doubt it.

This changes running speed into a running multiplier (of walk speed). The advantage is that it simplifies code since you can setup a default run multiplier at the template level and it'll work for all subsequent templates, and technologies cannot forget to change it. It makes specialised unit templates easier to maintain, too. We could alternatively remove all running capabilities, but the code needs to handle speed in the [0;1] * walk speed range for formation/group walk so it's not a huge hassle to have.
