- Banning draft now has a wait time before and after the banning phase

- Fix the 'popping' of heroes on the minimap when they enter or exit stealth
- Right clicking a friendly unit issues a follow_guard command, attacking enemies near the target unit
- Remake now disbands the game. No stats are recorded. This is a temp fix to some other remake issues until we resolve them.

Items
- Fixed Behemoth's Heart to increase the damage of Agility heroes by 10% instead of 21%
- Barrier Idol's passive effect no longer stays around forever
- Doombringer should now clear ownership when someone holding it dies. For real this time. I'm serious...
- Assassin's Shroud now breaks stealth when a spell finishes casting, not when it starts

Control Group/Hero Selection Changes
- Control groups of multiple units tweaked slightly including better sight of which unit is selected
- Using a bound hotkey or clicking the hero portrait now selects the hero even when dead
- Control groups save and restore the current focused unit
- Ctrl now issues orders only to the focused unit
- Fix the unit lifetime timer blocking the main control portrait
- Shift+click on the multi-select panel deselects (right-click always did, now both do)
- No info panels when drag selecting for clarity
- Attack and move orders to groups of units no longer interrupts channeling
- Illusions of a unit no longer count as the same unit type when double-click selecting

New Hero
