Global key shortcut (and better name) for `recenter` #1992

The recenter UI feature is hard to discover (it is only available when the world map is focused), and poorly named (it does not recenter the map per se; what it really does is view base). In the tutorial we teach players to run view base anyway. I think we should either make a global key shortcut for this, or just get rid of it from the UI altogether.

Perhaps an even better solution is to wait until #1979 is merged, and then make it available as an event, but with no default keybinding. Then players who really want it as a keyboard shortcut can bind it to whatever they want.
