Automatically manage dwarf labors to efficiently complete jobs.
Autolabor tries to keep as many dwarves as possible busy but
also tries to have dwarves specialize in specific skills.
The key is that, for almost all labors, once a dwarf begins a job it will finish that
job even if the associated labor is removed. Autolabor therefore frequently checks
which dwarf or dwarves should take new jobs for that labor, and sets labors accordingly.
