Reselect

[Tasyen]

Reselect makes deselection of your units less painful.
It saves the Units a player had selected when deselecting them.
After the deselection, when not selecting an new orderable Unit, a simple mouseclick on the map (not the Interface) will reselect them. A righclick will order the reselected group to do "smart" to the wanted position.

In the game this means one can select an enemy/shop inspect it, then simply left click on the gameScreen and the units are reselected.

Didn't tested in multiplayer, but theoretical the 0s timer should be MPI-save. If one can prove otherwise please do so. Wouldn't be much to rework to gain 100% MPI-save, but wanted to avoid the second group array.
