Subject: [PATCH] Crematorium can no longer destroy indestructible objects
 (#96101)

## About The Pull Request

Cleans up crematorium code, moves it to timers instead of sleeping, and
stops it from deleting indestructible objects.

Closes #96091

## Why It's Good For The Game

While this does have some balance implications, we no longer have an
objective to destroy the blackbox (with this being one of the few means
to do so, only other common method being the supermatter) so I presume
it is okay to prevent it from destroying otherwise indestructible items.
I've checked with NecromancerAnne about this and she said it shouldn't
have too much of a balance impact?

If I have missed any potential scenarios this breaks, please note under
the PR and I will try to rethink this.
