Add a "feed" job, similar to the medic button.

So it's been suggested many times to add a storage unit for food, that units will rush to to grab food from when they're hungry. I thought of another interesting alternative though. One option could be to have a medic-like job button, where instead of the units running around first-aiding people, they run around and give food to those who are hungry.

Just a simple interesting option.

I'd like this idea in the case where I'm managing a large squad as it would increase efficiency, but the case where I have a small squad it wouldn't be worth devoting the manpower. I think I'd like to see both options made available.

Maybe there could be a lower threshold of hunger before a character is replenished by someone with the job, and when the character is really hungry they automatically go get it themselves.

In the meantime I made 30 greenfruit farms. I've got 2 general storages filled with meatwraps, and I'm tired of giving them out.
