Steamhammer 1.4.6 uploaded

Steamhammer 1.4.6 is uploaded to SSCAIT. Steamhammer's web page is updated with source and binary downloads.

For an idea how much this version improves over 1.4.4, see its first game Steamhammer-Krasi0.

There are only a few visible changes from the CIG version 1.4.5. Terran bunkers and protoss photon cannons in the opening are built @ front in a defensive location, which is usually better. A terran bunker built as a strategy reaction by StrategyManager is also @ front. Reactive photon cannons and turrets are in their usual questionable locations, because they are meant to cover the base, not to defend the front.

I also adjusted the rules for dropping items from the production queue so that terran and protoss openings will execute as written. Formerly, a few openings might drop items and break. See MacroAct::hasTech().

Both changes affect the protoss ForgeExpand opening. It’s str0nger.
