Subject: [PATCH] Only log research when the MC is running (saves 0.4s of init
 time, but it depends on I/O) (#71584)

The recent R&D PR introduced a very large regression in init time
performance, as this always logs 300+ lines every single round, from the
station techwebs, CentCom techwebs, and more. This isn't helpful for
developers or admins, so limits logs to only after the MC is running,
which will mean user triggers.
