* Fixed several persistence issues.
* Added faction option to royal title condition.
* Added "any" option for royal title, ideo conditions.
* Added "work category capable" condition, which checks against work categories such as violent, mining, ect.
* Renamed "is capable of work" to "work type capable" to shorten the name.

Just for the record, I'm pretty happy with the mod in it's current state, so development has slowed down for the most part. I will of course continue maintaining, fixing bugs, and adding smaller requested features, but don't expect anywhere close the same rate of new features as previously. I have other projects I want to work on.

That is, of course, until I randomly begin hyperfocusing on this project again lol.

In the meanwhile, contributions are welcome through pull requests on GitHub.

* Added more options for changing default pawn exclusions. Whether or not downed, mentally broken, or cryptosleeping pawns should be excluded can now be customized.
* Added conditions for checking if a pawn is downed, mentally broken, or cryptosleeping. These are only visible if these pawns are not excluded by default anyways.
* Added "is mechanitor". Basically a shortcut to "health condition (mechlink), added for clarity.
* Added "hour between" condition, used to check the local hour.
* Added caching to formula and ordering fitness functions, to alleviate performance issues when a single pawn is selected while editing work specs with these functions.
* Added "dedicate pawn" on-assignment task. A dedicated pawn will ALWAYS be prioritized when resolving work assignments, even if the pawn would be otherwise excluded in anyway. The only exception to this is death.
** If you accidentally dedicate a pawn for too long, then you can clear all dedications in mod settings to resolve this.
** Pawns will only be re-dedicated when their current dedication expires.
* Fixed royalty title condition straight up not working.
* Fixed mech count fitness / has mech conditions not being exclusive to Biotech.

Do note that dedications are somewhat of an experimental feature. Although it seems to work, you never truly know with these kinds of things.

* Hotfixed the work assignment algorithm assigning the same work to the same pawn multiple times.

I have no idea how this issue remained unresolved for so long. My best guess is that the "unused" code I previously removed compensated for the issue. Regardless, assignments should now in general be more consistent and predictable.
