Every turn, your bot will receive a json-encoded line on stdin, representing the current game

<h3>Welcome to planetwars!</h3>
Example game state:
<p>
Planetwars is a game of galactic conquest for busy people. Your goal is to program a bot that
will conquer the galaxy for you, while you take care of more important stuff.
</p>
<p>
In every game turn, your bot will receive a json-encoded line on stdin, describing the current
state of the game. Each state will hold a set of planets, and a set of spaceship fleets
traveling between the planets (<em>expeditions</em>).

<p>
Every turn, you may send out expeditions to conquer other planets. You can do this by writing a
json-encoded line to stdout:
The <code>owner</code> field holds a player number when the planet is held by a player, and is
<code>null</code> otherwise. Your bot is always referred to as player 1.<br />
Each turn, every player-owned planet will gain one additional ship. <br />
Planets will never move during the game.

All players send out their commands simultaneously, so there is no turn order. You may send as
many commands as you please.
</p>
The amount of turns an expedition will travel is equal to the ceiled euclidean distance between
its origin and target planet.

Ships will only battle on planets. Combat resolution is simple: every ship destroys one enemy
ship, last man standing gets to keep the planet.
