Part one of our nefarious plans to destroy lag forever, and also
accomplish some cool shit.
This replaces our renderer system with plane masters, this will also be
used to turn skyboxes into backdrops and thus totally remove skybox
updating lag. Additionally, this will let us manipulate entire planes
very easily to do all sorts of zany shit. All credit goes to the
original coders, this is some seriously cool stuff.
Also fixes some bizarre smoothing behaviour, reduces updateoverlays
calls since now not every single structure in the game tries smoothing
with nothing.

To-do:
- [x] Finish storyteller verbs.
- [x] Storyteller landmarks.
- [x] Proper storyteller spawning. Right now the gamemode system is
happy with just picking one storyteller and no actors.
- [x] Antagonist whitelists code.
- [x] Adding the Storyteller whitelist.
- [x] Mission map loading code.
- [x] Map in a bunch of missions.
- [ ] Storyteller adminhelps.

This is part 1 of a project to, eventually, bring the render planes
system from /tg/ and bay into Aurora. This is a prerequisite and blocker
for many things the development team and community want to have, and
this was long overdue.
Many objects have been re-assigned layers, which are now thoroughly
defined. Maps have had their custom layer defines purged, as we should
be moving away from this in favor of saner definitions in the base
items.
This should be a test-merge due to the sheer amount of layers changed,
which will very likely create issues that I cannot possibly discover and
debug in a reasonable amount of time myself.

* edit that
* WHOOPS
* maor
* maybe works
* libcall and shit

Ports (and adjusts) Baystation12/Baystation12#12521 et al. Essentially brings our visualnet code up to the standard of three years ago, rather than five.
Side effects of merging may include but are not limited to loss of AI vision, helmet camera failure, garbage collection implosion, infinite turf loops, and unintended layer shenanigans.
High-level changes:
Overall, visualnet/chunk procs have been renamed and refactored to be clear as to their function.
Fix some layering issues related to magic numbers, these have been set to constants.
Visualnets now track source movement rather than overriding individual mob/obj procs.
Adds obfuscation underlay to complicate memory fudging to remove camera static.
Cameras now only add themselves to the cameranet if they're on open (non-restricted) networks.
Helmet cameras now use cameras themselves rather than network defines.
Adds a sorted object list insertion helper.
The Camera MIU (presently unused) should now function properly.
Unused cultnet / cult mask deleted because refactoring that would likely kill the few brain cells I have left
* Repaths eyes, observers, dview, and new_players to /mob/abstract subtypes.
* Adds /mob/abstract, a base type for 'abstract' mobs that aren't meant to be directly affected by the game world.
