SplinterGuides ratings update log - Iziar gets a big boost, Baakjira & other beafy units a small boost

Updated ratings logic for May 6, 2023:

• Added Martyr/Taunt synergy: Combining Taunt with Martyr forces the enemy (except when scattershot is present) to attack this unit, increasing the odds of it dying and giving a boost to adjacent units thanks to the Martyr. Since this is particularly OP, I gave it a new synergy level that gives a +2 boost when these abilities are both present on a card. The only affected card is Iziar, but what we recognize is that this synergy, which is currently unique, is game-altering, and therefore needed to be treated as such. Note that Iziar only gets the synergy at level 3, therefore its ratings for levels 1 and 2 are unchanged.
• Added a Martyr/Sneak synergy: This one I marked as "Low" (which gives a +0.3125 bonus). It is synergistic however as it enables Vruz to sit in the back line. This is particularly effective when paired with a Camouflage monster all the way to the back (e.g. Doctor Blight).
• Added a +0.3 rating bonus for health >= 15: This was done to recognize the beafiest (is that a word?) units in the game, specifically Peaceful Giant, Almo, Baakjira, Magnor, and Grum. Why 15? Because that's the point at which units start to heal 5 health instead of 4 per turn via Heal and Tank Heal.
