Extends and reworks how various extended information text (desc_info,
desc_build, desc_upgrades) are handled to make object interactions and
mechanics A.) much more clearly documented in-game and B.) much easier
to support from the back-end.
Almost certainly a candidate for test merge.
Assembly/Disassembly instructions are noticeably sporadic, largely due
to our current lack of a unified framework. That's a future thing I'd
like to attack so that it can be handled programmatically, but for now I
only targeted the biggest culprits as I came across them.

Our SSOverlays system is outdated, and is likely the cause of many of
the issues seen in #18895. It has also been linked to a massive server
performance decrease.
This brings an updated system from Baystation, hopefully with speed
increases.
Should be testmerged, ideally with #18895.

-added a small animation when someone is hit by a blaster projectile
Shotgun slugs and revolvers were pretty much stong, by instagibbing people ignoring armor, due to having a maim bonus. This pr will remove this, those weapons can still maim and gib limbs, but without any magical force that is able to ignore armor. Plasma cutter and heavy sniper bullets still keep this feature for obvious reasons.
-fixes #4296
-fixes the missing walrus facial hair sprite
-fixes the empty carbine and mosing rifle having the wrong on armor sprite
-fixes prank guns having firing pins
