Auto-Resolve: Make princess take the reins so you can play a game of spreadsheets!

[Scoppio]

First small contribution.

Motivation:

I like to play it from time to time, but as the game progresses I realize that what I really like is managing the company, MekHQ is what I really like, and the battles were getting in the way of my fun. So after some talk with other maintainers I learned that I could load a bot to play for me, and that was fun, some games I really dont want to spend the time to hunt a single mek, or fight a space or low-atmo battle is fun for fluff but not my personal taste for the game.

Implementation

This pull request adds the an auto-resolve button, it opens Megamek with an extra BotForce with the name of your company + ":AI", it has the same config as the player including color, camouflage, starting location, and all the player owned entities are then transferred to this AI.

The AI Behavior setting is persisted as a preset with the same name as your company + ":AI", so if its name "Assault Scout Company" the preset is going to be named "Assault Scout Company:AI". If by any chance you delete the preset, it will load the Default behavior setting in its place.
If you open an older save, it will load the Default behavior too, so it is backward compatible.

Any change to the configuration is persisted the moment you hit "OK" in the settings dialog, if you hit cancel it just closes without propagating the changes, it keeps the "help" button that explain Princess behavior configuration.

A new function was added in the "management/gm thingamajig" option at the top, the same where you can create a company, where you can configure the Behaviour Setting for your company.

Also, I just realised, I need to document the feature.

I have some points of feedback, and some concerns - largely around code redundancy. In particular, it's hard to tell what is new code in AutoResolveBehaviorSettingsDialog.java and what is duplicated from the normal bot dialog.

One of the big reasons we want to avoid code redundancy here, imo (and I stress, this is just an opinion), is because any changes made to the original bot behavior dialog would need to be replicated in your new class.

False positive, this evaluates to the correct value, either the behavior setting with the name which is present in the "getTextContent", or the default behavior.

A couple of minor nitpicks. Great work. :)

[SJuliez]

Maybe it would make sense (not as part this PR) to offer to auto-resolve battles entirely without opening MM at all? Would be safer, quicker and not overtax Princess with mission goals that she is not equipped to handle.

I really wanted to do that, I will explore somethings to be able to get to an approximation of an auto-resolve, I will also explore how other games do that. It is out of the scope of this PR but I do want to get a king of auto-resolve that is very short and sweet for the player, and which does take the environment into consideration.
This one was my "first step" into contributing to MM, I went with something that allows me to just shortcut the process of adding a bot to play for me.
