Reduce bot farming problem

Description:

Explanation of the bot farming strategy in the discord: https://discord.com/channels/1359946986937258015/1359949371956789289/1460928540575928478
"the result is that a player can build unlimited factories for 125 000 gold discount, trade with themselves with each train being worth 50 000 gold. First the 25 000 for neutral trade and then another 25 000 when the bot is harvested."
"If you have a minute and ally people around you it should be trivial to get 10 of both cities and factories for 1.25mil"

It's debatable if we want to let people do that (close this PR) or see it as an abusive mechanic.

Here is the fix, bots try to delete all structures now. You can simply retake them to stop the deletion:

Please complete the following:

• I have added screenshots for all UI updates
• I process any text displayed to the user through translateText() and I've added it to the en.json file
• I have added relevant tests to the test directory
• I confirm I have thoroughly tested these changes and take full responsibility for any bugs introduced

Walkthrough

The BotExecution module now enqueues deletion tasks for all structure units on every tick after initialization by calling a new private method deleteAllStructures that identifies structure-typed units and queues DeleteUnitExecution for each before other logic runs.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Bot Execution Structure Cleanup src/core/execution/BotExecution.ts	Added isStructureType and DeleteUnitExecution imports. Added private deleteAllStructures that iterates units, checks isStructureType, and enqueues DeleteUnitExecution for deletable structures. deleteAllStructures is invoked on each tick after initialization, before attack/movement logic.

Poem

🏗️ Each tick the bot looks round and then,
It marks old structures for their end,
Queues up the deletes, one by one,
Softly the cleanup work is done,
A tidy world when tasks have run.
