Summary: SPELLS tag time unit enhancements

Initial Comment:
This is an enhancement to the SPELLS tag in three parts:

1) adding an additional variable:

TIMEUNIT=x

X can be any text and is the unit of time used where TIMES sets the number usable within that unit. This is an optional variable and if not present the default value is "Day". Example:

SPELLS:Innate|TIMES=3|TIMEUNIT=Week|etc..

The spell-like ability can be used 3 times per week


2) adding a corresponding OS subtoken to SPELLMEM:

Variable z: TIMEUNIT - Displays the unit of time

Example:

|SPELLMEM.v.w.x.y.TIMES| times per |SPELLMEM.v.w.x.y.TIMEUNIT|

Outputs "3 times per Week"


3) Make At Will unambiguous. Currently TIMES=-1 is used to indicate the ability can be used at will. This should be changed to TIMES=ATWILL to be clear.

Part 3 split out to [1901191] Make At Will in SPELLS unambiguous as it is
not linked to this and will be done after the imminent release.
