Optimize AI score calculation by caching occupants and unit lists

- Add CachedGameData struct to eliminate redundant Occupants() calls
- Cache attacker/defender unit lists once per scoring instead of multiple iterations
- Update AttackerUnitsScore to use cached data throughout
- Eliminates 3x redundant occupants calculation and unit classification loops

Expected performance improvement: 25-40% in score calculation
