Readds medium screens (#39632)

Browse Source 
Circuits may have deserved many of the nerfs in #39376, but the removal of medium screens was absolutely not one of them. It is one of the only meaningful ways to send feedback to the user, and fills the niche of essentially being a to_chat() that the TTS circuit doesn't do (TTS announces to EVERYBODY within a screen's range, medium screens only announce to the user and anybody adjacent).

The main reason for removal was "anti-deaf" circuits. The usefulness of those is only questionably useful at best to begin with, as it is very situational (requires you to have printed and to be carrying the circuit with you and then go deaf and then get into a conversation where the other person is unaware that you are deaf). I don't believe this was even close to enough of a reason to remove one of the only meaningful ways of giving user feedback with circuits.
