Summary0014122: Reword tech increase/decrease text to put amount in front
DescriptionIn some of the techs (Buildings: Space Elevator in this example, but most of the buildings, some safety, some population, etc) which display the effects as line items, the text has the amount it increases/decreases at the end of the line, which is obviously of variable length. In this example, the lines wrap and it doesn't flow well. Putting the value at the start of the line makes it consistent, and also would technically shorten the text length by a whopping one character.

The sentence format just changes from "Increases" to "increased to", and removes the trailing "by".

Original:
Increases non-robotic birth rates on this planet by 1.0x
Increases armada construction and improvement speeds on this planet by 1.4x
Increases scientific research speeds for this entire race by 1.0x

Suggested:
1.0x increase to non-robotic birth rates on this planet
1.4x increase to armada construction and improvement speeds on this planet
1.0x increase to scientific research speeds for this entire race

The numeric values could be color coded for extra pop, if it is subtle so it doesn't look like a rainbow puked into the popup.
