So previously, patriot and strat centre would also show attack mouse marker rather than disabled mouse marker?

Yes - in retail, Patriots (and any other KINDOF_POWERED structures) would also show the attack mouse marker rather than the disabled mouse marker when underpowered.
However, the Strategy center cannon is not a powered thing, it can still force fire like a fire base without power.
I've tested these with this fix - while undepowered, the patriot and gatling cannon now correctly show the disabled mouse cursor, and the strategy center can still force fire its cannon.

Addresses issue #1700
Tested by building a power plant, then a gatling cannon, force firing it, then selling the power plant and trying to force fire.
Result: The gatling cannon can no longer force fire while powered down, the "can't" mouse cursor is displayed, and there is no spinning animation.
