Better Starbase Economies - Gestalt Patch

Quick patch of Better Starbase Economies to allow Gestalt Empires to build the Research Terminals, and the Buildings that upgrade Research (like the Astrophysics expansion).

Since they do not use and cannot buy Consumer Goods, the standard mod's RTs cause them to take a massive hit to their unity and science output (critical resource missing debuff -- depleted CGs).

I added a check to see whether the current owner is a Gestalt empire or not. If so, change the upkeep from 1 EC + 1 CG --> 3 EC (base price for CG on Market is 2).

Arguably, you could balance this better (i.e. for it to cost more EC or w/e) because Gestalts have wildly different economies, but I just went for a quick fix here. ;)
