All << is converted into to_chat().

-increases the golem spell cooldown
-Changed the name of Subjugate to Mind Blast, and rewrote its description to actually explain what it does.

This pr revives and improve one of fowl's project: material golems
Instead of creating the same boring adamantine golems always, anyone with access to a golem rune can now place an offering of materials, and the materials will influence the creation of a certain type of golem.
Each golem has different status and powers:
Steel, Bronze, Iron, Plasteel, Titanium golem: they are slower than the regular human, but take less damage and are more powerful in melee combat, but unable to use ranged weapons.
Cloth and cardboard golems: they are faster than a human mob, take less fall damage, but are more fragile and are weak to fire.
Glass golem: fragile to brute damage, resistent to burn and shocks, has a chance of deflecting lasers. explodes into pieces of glass upon death.
Diamond golem: resistent to burn and brute damage and has a chance of deflecting lasers.
Uranium golem: has a passive chance of irradiating mobs around
Sand golems: sand golems can vent crawl, and they will turn into glass golems when exposed to enough heat or fire
Phoron golem: melee attacks have a chance to set their victims on fire, they explode into a cloud of fire and phoron upon their death
Metallic Hydrogen Golem: weak to being shocked, can shock its victims with meele attacks, can discharge dangerous lighting and recharge powercells and other objects.
Homunculus: an organic golem, not stronger like his cousins, but has most of the advantages that a human and others species do. It can also bring other golems back to life if it can get hold of its brain
Sprites are mostly from tgstation, vgstation and europa.
This pr adds a magic poppet, a doll that can be infused with some spessmen's blood to bind them to it. From there, the person can mess with the dolls in some manners, and fun things will happen to the unfortunate victim of said sorcery. Added to some wizard spellbooks and a mining abandoned crate.
Druids and clerics will have the ability to petrify their victims temporarily, something that was previously reserved to battlemages for reasons that didn't really make sense to me.
