Repatriate: add minimum thresholds for metal and crystal
Suggested by:

Repatriate exposes RepatriateMinimumDeuterium but has no equivalent for metal and crystal, so both are drained to zero on every cycle.
This puts two of the bot's own modules in conflict: Repatriate pulls crystal off a production planet, Brain orders it back for the next construction, and fuel is paid both ways. From a 3-day log covering 353 Brain imports on a 13-planet account: imports containing crystal 88% imports containing metal 56% imports containing deuterium 32% Crystal dominates because it is fully drained and immediately needed again. Deuterium, the only resource with a configurable floor, appears in the fewest imports. That correlation is the argument. Suggested change: two per-celestial fields, symmetric to the existing one: RepatriateMinimumMetal RepatriateMinimumCrystal Production planets keep a working buffer for Brain while still shipping surplus to the hub, and a round trip disappears from every cycle.
Awaiting approval
