Turns out sunlight is a little memory hungry/slow. This disables sunlight via. compile-time define instead of removing it so it can be re-enabled if suitable later.
changes:
SSlighting is now FIFO - lights are processed in the order they are received instead of by whatever one was queued most recently.
Instant lighting updates now check CURRENT_TICKLIMIT instead of ITL. ITL has been removed due to it no longer being used.
SSlighting will no longer double-process lighting datums that have already been processed by instant lighting.
Instant/Intelligent lighting updates can now be disabled via. compile-time define.
Sunlight should no longer shine indoors.
Directional lighting now properly updates on direction changes again.
/datum/light_source/novis has been renamed to /datum/light_source/sunlight.
More lighting microoptimizations.
Converted two storage lists to be lazy.
changes:
Parallax now actually moves properly on Move().
Parallax movement can now be toggled as a preference.
Merged all movable/Move() overrides for performance reasons.
changes:
Removed the privacy poll as it is unused.
Observing no longer creates a new mannequin, instead fetching one from SSmobs.
Observer ghosts now have a description again.
Converted new_player.dm to absolute pathing.
Fixed a bad init on holomaps.
Removed a sleep from light fixture Initialize().
Added a queue length stat to the MC panel for Icon Smoothing.
Halved time taken to create lighting overlay objects.
Species & body marking lists are now sorted alphabetically.
Commented out calls to lighting profiler to remove overhead of string interpolation in some procs.
Blood dries instantly if present during mapload instead of setting a timer.
Mostly micro-optimizations on a few loops, but also includes more non-mem-hack optimizations for white light such as that created by the default sun.
Movable light updates are done on Move/forceMove now instead of Entered/Exited.
Removed pointless cache_u value.
Implements a configurable sun for a sunlight effect using the lighting engine.
Abuses Z-lights to illuminate Zs in a semi-realistic way.
Kinda slow at setting state, but state changes shouldn't lag & are rare.
Also adds the ability to create lights that ignore visibility when calculating range, causing them to shine through objects/walls.
changes:
Openturfs no longer copy the below turf's name.
Openturfs' desc now lists the name of the below turf instead of copying the below turf's desc.
SSmob now detects sleeping Life() procs.

changes:
Flashlights now default to LIGHT_WIDE directional lighting.
Glowsticks, Lamps, Flares, and Slime Cores use LIGHT_OMNI.
Maglights use LIGHT_NARROW.
Heavy-duty flashlights use LIGHT_SEMI.
EVA suits default to LIGHT_WIDE.
Lanterns use LIGHT_OMNI, as well as now having a more appropriate light color.
Floodlights use LIGHT_WIDE, as well as having a more appropriate light color.
Synthetics default to LIGHT_WIDE. (including drones)
Added some predefined light_wedge values to the lighting defines file.
Fixed some bad angles that screwed up north/south lights in some cases.
This is similar to #1722, but it uses a bit of math to allow explicit setting of the angle of light.
Pretty much complete, although no lights have been updated to use directional lighting.
Features:
Facing a wall with a directional light results in darkness - light is not emitted on own tile.
Tweaks diona values on all lights, and range/power on a couple
Also adds a slightly dimmer sprite for tube light fixtures that they switch to during night mode. To reduce the incongruity from having a bright tube putting out very little light
changes:
Refactored footstep sounds to use less operations & only calculate for human-types.
Improved the logging detail of the lighting profiler.
Fixed some shuttle corners that weren't correctly working with parallax space.
Converted get_turf() into a compiler macro.
Solars are now dynamically lit.
Silenced warning from lighting overlays pooling themselves when updated on a space tile.
Fixed a bug where securing a girder was instant when it was supposed to have a delay.
This PR simplifies the lighting update system (removes update_type) and instead makes the lighting system decide which update method to use based on server load.
Instant updates are used during low-load, scheduled during high.
Also removes: update_lights_now() (redundant), diff_light() (unused).
This is it. The big one.
Risk: Very large. This modifies or rewrites several important systems.
Some things still need balancing, but that's probably better done if/when this hits dev.
changes:
New smooth lighting system.
Machinery split into three processes: machinery, powernet, pipenet Removed due to breakage. Refactored into multi-step process.
Mob process rewritten.
NanoUI process rewritten.
Objects process rewritten.
Tweaked color output of station lights.
Slime core lights now emit colored light.
Fixed light update frequency issue with fire alarms, hydroponics trays, and airlocks.
Increased light emission from bolted airlocks.
Miscellaneous performance improvements.
New datum pool implementation.
New lighting usage profiler.
Lighting system now tracks UV light, which is not visible to players.
Space now has a parallax effect.
Disabled Spin View verbs due to incompatibility with the new lighting system.
Disabled hallucination view spin due to incompatibility with the new lighting system.
Lighting system now initializes in the lobby before the round starts to reduce BoR deadtime.
Added UV light tracking to lighting engine; dionae now gain energy exclusively from UV light.
Added colored lighting to a few consoles that used default (white) light.
