Find all Idle Units

Description

Currently the "Find Idle Workers" function (accessed either via the GUI button or the . key) only finds idle women. It would be nice to be able to find all idle units. My suggestion would be to group them like this: Idle Warriors (heroes, super units, siege, war ships), Idle Citizen Soldiers, Idle Support Units (female citizens, healers, traders, fishing ships, trade ships). Not sure about how to graphically represent it the best way, but it would work good with the keys: , . - (,=warriors; .=citizen soldiers; -=support units). Thoughts?

So with [9349] the "Find Idle Workers" button will cycle through all idle resource-gathering units (women, traders and citizen soldiers - in that order). It's been proposed that we add a "Find Idle Warriors" button that would cycle through all idle military units (heroes, super units, citizen soldiers, siege, war ships).

(In [9791]) Adds hotkey for finding idle warriors (comma). See #792. Updates finding idle units to be more flexible. Resets finding idle units when unit is deselected. Adds Warship class to relevant templates.

Bumping to Alpha 7. The functionality is all implemented. Just need to ensure that either button (, for warriors and . for support units) picks up all idle units, like fishing boats, warships, heros, etc). If so, this can be closed.
