This replaces lavaland's old diagonal tunnel gen which was really
horrendously jammed into asteroid floor code (?????) with Cellular
Automata which runs in rust (PR for that here:
https://github.com/tgstation/rust-g/pull/57 ). The new code is a bit
cleaner, but also looks better.

Things to do:
- Make an icemoon version
- Fix the roundstart atmos adjacency issues
I asked AnturK if this was an acceptable PR for this month; he said it
was okay as long as I didn't add new areas, which I don't plan to do.
But if anyone thinks this PR breaks the spirit of the month I'll open
it again in december.
Adds a MAPTEXT macro that wraps the given text in the maptext class, the thing we use for Runechat to make it so you can actually read it. Everything that sets maptext now uses this.
Yeah uhh this'll probably need testmerging even after it's done because yeah it's a bit big.
If y'all want me to atomize this into two PRs (pass flags vs projectiles) tell me please. Pass flags would have to go in first though, in that case, as new projectile hit handling will rely on pass_flags_self.
Pass flags:
Pass flags handling now uses an atom variable named pass_flags_self.
If any of these match a pass_flag on a thing trying to pass through, it's allowed through by default.
This makes overriding CanAllowThrough unnecessary for the majority of things. I've however not removed overrides for very.. weird cases, like plastic flaps which uses a prob(60) for letting PASSGLASS things through for god knows why.
LETPASSTHROW is now on pass_flags_self
Projectiles:
Not finalized yet, need to do something to make the system I have in mind have less unneeded overhead + snowflake
Basically, for piercing/phasing/otherwise projectiles that go through things instead of hitting the first dense object, I have them use pass_flags flags for two new variables, projectile_phasing and projectile_piercing. Anything with pass_flags_self in the former gets phased through entirely. Anything in the latter gets hit, and the projectile then goes through. on_hit will also register a piercing hit vs a normal hit (so things like missiles can only explode on a normal hit or otherwise, instead of exploding multiple times. Not needed as missiles qdel(src) right now but it's nice to have for the future).
I still need to decide what to do for hit handling proper, as Bump() is still preferred due to it not being as high-overhead as something like scanning on Moved(). I'm thinking I'll make Moved() only scan for cases where it needs to hit a non-dense object - a prone human the user clicked on, anything special like that. Don't know the exact specifics yet, which is why this is still WIP.
Projectiles now use check_pierce() to determine if it goes through something and hits it, doesn't hit it, or doesn't go through something at all (should delete self after hitting). Will likely make an on_pierce proc to be called post-piercing something so you can have !fun! things like projectiles that go down in damage after piercing something. This will likely deprecate the process_hit proc, or at least make it less awful.
scan_for_hit() is now used to attempt to hit something and will return whether the projectile got deleted or not. It will delete the projectile if the projectile does hit something and fails to pierce through it.
scan_moved_turf() (WIP) will be used for handling moving onto a turf.
permutated has been renamed to impacted. Ricocheting projectiles get it reset, allowing projectiles to pierce and potentially hit something again if it goes back around.
A new unit test has been added checking for projectiles with movement type of PHASING. This is because PHASING completely causes projectiles to break down as projectiles mainly sense collisions through Bump. The small boost in performance from using PHASING instead of having all pass flags active/overriding check_pierce is in my opinion not worth the extra snowflake in scan_moved_turf() I'd have to do to deal with having to check for hits manually rather than Bump()ing things.
Movement types
UNSTOPPABLE renamed to PHASING to better describe what it is, going through and crossing everything but not actually bumping.
Why It's Good For The Game
Better pass flags handling allows for less proc overrides, bitflag checks are far less expensive in general.
Fixes penetrating projectiles like sniper penetrators
This system also allows for better handling of piercing projectiles (see above) without too much snowflake code, as you'd only need to modify on_pierce() if you needed to do special handling like dampening damage per target pierced, and otherwise you could just use the standardized system and just set pass flags to what's needed. If you really need a projectile that pierces almost everything, override check_pierce(), which is still going to be easier than what was done before (even with snowflake handling of UNSTOPPABLE flag process_hit() was extremely ugly, now we don't rely on movement types at all.)
I wanted to refactor how movetype flags are added and removed into traits to prevent multiple sources of specific movement types from conflicting one other. I ended up also having to refactor the floating animation loop (the one that bobs up and down) code in the process.
Why It's Good For The Game
A way to avoid conflict from multiple sources of movement types.
This also stops melee attacks, jitteriness and update_transform() from temporarily disabling the floating movetype bitflag altogether until the next life tick.
Tested, but i'm pretty sure improvements could be made.
Changelog
cl
fix: jitteriness, melee attack animations and resting/standing up should no longer momentarily remove the floating movement type.
/cl
* sstimer no longer delays maintenance tasks if its going over its tick.
This was leading to bugs if certain state operations happened while a task was delayed, furthermore if the timer subsystem was overloaded, the invoked timers list would bloat as it would never get cleared out, which would make all timer invocations take longer as they had to add to an ever growing list.
* Update timer.dm
* Fix error when a bucket has only one timer.
* simply timer loop logic & improve timer debug string
It would try to batch up linked list modifications and every issue we have ever had has been related to this, so now it just directly pulls the head of the linked list off, using bucketEject, rather then detect when it reaches the end of the linked list queue it will now just know because the bucket will be empty.
All bucketCount logic has been moved to bucketEject and bucketJoin(), which should also keep that more proper.
* Update timer.dm
* Update timer.dm
My initial reversion had never resulted in the map appearing in the game. Despite apprehension with Ice Box, it's actually not as bad as I thought it was. Box isn't maintained upstream so dealing with it would suck.
* Final Stage Capitalism.
* tweaks.
* Got overzelous in my fervor for blood
* well, this now has my full attention.
* Whoops missed a <<
* fixes issue because there were changes I missed
* Cobby: Departmental income is static.
* Whoops
* Various high cost premium prices and a few custom_prices have been adjusted to better suit the lack of income. Code cleanup on income so they're all in-line with cargo.
* First, this has been atomized out.
* UI is now fixed as god intended.
* Actually no, this is dynamic now. No more confusion.
* Conflicts fixed.
* Apply suggestions from code review

Dumps a bunch of perf info to a csv every 10 seconds.
Currently this info is only stored in blackbox where it's effectively useless.
csv is a very easy to parse format and is natively supported by a lot of data analysis tools
I've been pulling my hair out on this one. Ever since I started my ntnet project, I could never get LateInitalize to work right. Apparently it has never worked right. How it was set up before on server start
Station map loads, Does NOT run Initialize(mapload = TRUE)
Generates space, lavaland/icebox ruins
Loads a ruin, DOES run Initialize(mapload = TRUE) EXCEPT on areas
End of mapping system
Atom system Initialized and it checks and runs Initialize(mapload = TRUE) on world
You see the issue? Initialize and by extension LateInitialize is run in blocks. Worst, LateInitialize is run on turfs FIRST in ruins BEFORE Initialize is ever run on the other atoms. While there isn't much in Area, there is map_generator so I am sure it caused some grief for map creators.
The NEW order now is
Station map loads, Does NOT run Initialize(mapload = TRUE)
Generates space, lavaland/icebox ruins
Loads a ruin, Does NOT run Initialize(mapload = TRUE)
End of mapping system
Atom system Initialized and it checks and runs Initialize(mapload = TRUE) on world
Also if you dynamicly load a map, like snowdin or such, it will Initialize all atoms at once and then run LateInitialize properly
About The Pull Request
Ports and improves my interview system that has been previously used in the summer ball and toolbox tournament events. Allows for a 'softer' panic bunker, wherein players who fall below the required living time limit can still join the server and be restricted to filling out a questionnaire. Upon completing the questionnaire, the player may be allowed into the server by an administrator. If the application is approved, they get a notification that they will be reconnected and upon reconnecting will have all verbs as they usually would. If the application is denied the user is put on a cooldown after which they may submit a new questionnaire.
Players who are being interviewed (herein interviewees) have no verbs other than those required for the stat panel to function, as well as a verb to pull up the interview panel. Interviews do not persist through restarts, and the ability to join that is granted by an accepted interview is only valid for the duration of that round.
Open interviews are listed under a new 'interviews' tab for admins, which is VERY similar to the existing tickets tab.
Below is what a player who is flagged as an interviewee will see when they join the server. They can do nothing but respond to the questionnaire or leave.

This is what an administrator sees after an interview is submitted, they will also see a corresponding message within their chatbox, and an age-old BWOINK when an interview is submitted.

The interviews tab, which is similar to the tickets menu. You can open the interview manager panel to view all active (including non-submitted) interviews, queued (submitted) interviews, and closed interviews.

FAQ:
What happens if someone submits an interview when no admins are on? It's treated like adminhelps are, the message gets sent to TGS to be dispatched off to configured end-points (like Discord or IRC), and the user is notified that their interview was handled this way.
Can you configure the questions? Yes, in config/ there is now a interviews.txt file in which the welcome message and the individual questions can be set and modified.
Can this be turned on and off during a round? Yes, it can be toggled like the panic bunker. It requires the panic bunker to be raised in order to function.
Can interviewees have further questions asked to them? Yes, if you admin-pm them, which is possible using regular means or a conveniently placed button on the interview UI, they will be able to respond to the message.
Technical details
To use the interview system you must have the panic bunker enabled, this is an additional setting for the panic bunker. It can be set through the PANIC_BUNKER_INTERVIEW setting in config.txt, or alternatively enabled in-game as prompted during the panic bunker toggling process. It also can be toggled on its own using a verb added for this purpose, Toggle PB Interviews found under the server tab. These new actions are included in the logging for the panic bunker. I have also added a reporting stat to the world topic status keyword, which now reports if the interview system is on using the keyword interviews.
As mentioned above, for server operators, configure the questions and welcome message in config/interviews.txt.
Note to maintainers and those with big brains I had to add a call to init_verbs on the stat panel window being ready because seemingly a race condition exists wherein the add_verb of the 'view my interview' verb doesn't cause a refresh of the tabs (and therefore doesn't show the 'Interview' tab) when running in dream daemon but running it directly from visual studio code properly shows the tab. Adding a init_verbs call directly after adding the verb didn't seem to help.
A note for downstreams
If you don't use the HTML stat panel (which may not be a bad thing) then you will have to do some conversion from the HTML stat panel stuff used here to the old style stat panels. It's pretty trivial, but just be aware of that. You can see how I used to use the old stat panels in my PR from the summer ball, here, which should be helpful.
Why It's Good For The Game
This allows for a softer version of the panic bunker which impedes the flow of malicious players while allowing genuine players a chance to enter a round to gain enough time to not be affected by the panic bunker's restrictions.
Changelog
