Summary0023013: Multiple woes with unit selections
DescriptionThe following UI issues (mostly reported separately) are all related, so I'm grouping them all in one ticket as I was asked to. Basically, the task of "select some units and order them to move somewhere" is currently far harder than it should be.

* If I open the fleet panel and right-click a fleet to select it, the camera gets pulled to it, which is almost always not what I want. 0022391
* Related: I'd like an option to reverse the functions of left and right click on the fleets panel. This is the only place in the game where you right-click to select.

* There's no way to select individual units within a fleet without moving the camera to the planet they're currently on. I want to be able to right-click a fleet in the fleets pane to select it, then press a hotkey or click a button to transform the selection from "Strike Fleet Indigo" to "32x Fusion Bomber, 3x Raid Frigate, 1x Fleet Transport" or whatever. (Also listed on 0022391, but I can make a separate ticket for it if you want).

* I also want to be able to open the fleet overview for Strike Fleet Indigo from the fleets pane, then click a little "select me!" button next to "Raid Frigate Mk1, 3/3" and get the raid frigates added to the selection without the rest of the fleet. (No ticket yet)

* Holding ALT (the default "remove from selection" key) and clicking on one of the unit types in the bottom-right selection list should remove that unit type from selection. It doesn't. 0022464
* Related: holding ALT and pressing 3 should remove Fleet 3 from the selection. It doesn't.

* Double-clicking on a planet in the galaxy map pulls you directly from the galaxy map to the planet map (good), but it also clears the current selection (bad). 0022616

* Opening the main menu clears the current selection. 0022393

* Ordering units (not fleets) from planet to planet causes them to become deselected when they travel through a wormhole. This is a total pain in the ass when trying to micromanage raid frigates. 0022871
