About The Pull Request
When a user successfully links their BYOND accounts and discord accounts, they will now be automatically roled, based on config settings.
NOTE: This does not update pre-linked accounts, but I can write an external bot to do that if needed
RUST-G has also been updated in this PR, to be inline with this PR over at RUST-G tgstation/rust-g#23

About The Pull Request
Adds the Enhanced Interrogation Chamber as a BEPIS reward.
This security-only machine is able to implant a deep-rooted trigger phrase onto a subject; if they hear that phrase after the procedure, they will immediately enter a state of hypnotic trance, which can be used to demand truthful answers for your ongoing investigation.
The enslavement of criminal and non-criminal subjects is frowned upon by space law. Do not abuse the Enhanced Interrogation Chamber for personal gain.
Bad choice or mishandling of trigger words may lead to loss of control over the subject.
Side effects include dizziness, nausea, confusion, vomit, loss of eyesight, violent tendencies, loss of sanity, depression, oppression, loss of free will, spontaneous hypnotic trance, loss of hair, death.
Use with care.
Why It's Good For The Game
Make your own Manchurian Candidate!
Allows "rehabilitation" of dangerous criminals by security, which is more interesting than straight-up execution.
Could lead to fun situations if a team antag is caught and forced to be a mole.
It could also be used by any antag who manages to get to the sec protolathe.
However, the "conversion" is still shaky! The main cure is surgery, as the triggered trance is effectively just a brain trauma, healable with surgery. On top of this, even if the subject is unable to hear their trigger phrase, if someone else knows it they can override commands at any time. Even if that doesn't happen, it's possible that another message sneaks in before you can give your command, intercepting the hypnosis.
On top of this, the chamber has a 10% chance of giving the hypnotic stupor trauma instead of the triggered trance, making the subject even more of a wildcard.
Effectively, this is a very powerful tool in the antag-vs-security conflict, but over-reliance on it will probably bite back in amusing ways.
