Add ectoscopic sniffer to Robotics Labs (#59494)

This PR adds a new machine; the ectoscopic sniffer, to the robotics lab on each map.

The sniffer is small desktop machine used for detecting paranormal activity, it displays a green flash and a chime every time it is touched(as in attacked) by a ghost.

It has a single wire inside, when this wire is pulsed, it triggers the animation and chime, as if touched by a ghost, maybe some enterprising crewmember can use this to their advantage. When this wire is cut, the device won't trigger, no matter how many spooks or haunts touch it.

---

This PR is above all fun.

Of course, it can be used as the author of the previous PR intended; to alert the roboticists of souls willing to occupy a positronic brain.

Clever spacemen will always figure out how to use this kind of device for more creative parascientifc research.

It is still limited by its low bitrate and the very low quality of the information as compared to something like ghost court, since a single malevolent spirit is able to feed the living bullshit.
