  Experimental AI: make AI recruit higher level units

Because unit cost is penalized in the ExpAI, it recruits almost no higher level units. This adds a bonus for such units to be recruited at approximately the ratio defined in 'high_level_fraction'.

  ExpAI recruiting: make high_level_fraction parameter configurable

This also sets its default value to zero, in order to have consistent default behavior with versions from before this parameter was introduced.

It also provides a macro so that the ExpAI can be used with custom parameters in a scenario config, and adds high_level_fraction as an optional parameter to the Recruit Rushers Micro AI.

This was already an optional parameter for the Recruit Rushers Micro AI.

  Fred ExpAI recruiting: set initial conditions for first recruit

Without this, the AI always starts with whatever it considers the best unit without taking the level bonus into account. This mostly only matters when one sets high_level_fraction to a very large value (1 or larger) in order to force only high-level recruits. In other cases it makes no, or no significant, difference.
