Attempt to make tcomms blackout event more stable (#21051)

Browse Source 
Because I'm not game to try to rewrite the entire system, this PR
changes the Communications Blackout event to, instead of hitting every
tcomms box with EMP effects, toggle a flag on the Processor units to
scramble all comms. The effect will be that instead of not transmitting
at all, radio communications will just come through as pure static
gibberish. Once the event is over, it will toggle the flag off. In the
event of the telecomms boxes still failing to come back, anyone with the
vv permission can easily restore the processors by editing the
"ion_storm" variable from true to false.

Few misc other fixes, see changelogs
