[m5.28.1] TUs not recovered when overweight TU penalty removed.

[Melee]

Description:  Not knowing what to expect, Lt. Kovalenko brought extra batteries to the terror mission.  However, after storing them in the drop ship, she still couldn't move as far as she could have without them.

What Happened:  After dropping batteries, TUs consumed by overweight TU penalty not returned.

Hmm. Yes, I think this is a holdover from the days when weapon fire costs were calculated off modified max TU rather than the raw max TU value, but we've fixed that now. So we might be able to refund the TU now.

I'll have a think about it.

I'll add that if the starting soldiers have particularly unlucky stats I don't think there are enough early missions to progress the soldiers fast enough to be able to carry enough gear, mainly ammo because their accuracy sucks, to do an early terror mission or alien base.  The workaround was arriving overloaded and dropping the excess.
