Department, warning, and general sign code fix. And brand new custom plaques! (#50550)

* Oh God I hope this works...

* It didn't work.

* Making things better.

* Making things even better.

* That made things worse.

* Sorting works! \o/

* Tidying some thing ups.

* Adding a custom plaque to the game.

* Some plaque tweaks.

* Makes plaques more durable than signs.

* Adds the stack crafting.

* Plaques take a little time to engrave, signs can't be changed instantly anymore.

* Comments, and renamed the global list to avoid confusion.

* Appends "sign" to every name, makes department signs not all caps, fixes some names and descriptions.

* Touching up plaque customization and display, removing one last all caps.

* Plaques can now be engraved in hand too.

* Newline.

* Update code/game/objects/structures/customplaque.dm

* Update code/game/objects/structures/customplaque.dm

Co-Authored-By: Rohesie <rohesie@gmail.com>

* Mirroring some fixes from customplaque.dm

* A bunch of stuff.

* Unwrenched signs now lay horizontal.

* A lot more stuff, turned a negative variable into a positive.

* Fix chat inconsistency, remove deprecated and unused variable.

* Apparently buildable_sign is used elsewhere, whoops.

* Adding documentation to this, fixing a bool being 0 in another file.

* Don't know why this was here, sign dir is 100% irrelevant.

* Fixes some sound malarkey.

* Changes delays to be readable, removes unneeded return.

* Fixes these two early returns, it needed return TRUE at the end to work.

* Trying to fix a revert I messed up...

* Moving plaques to a directory, moving old sign plaque types into it. Map changes.

* Rename since I relocated this object entirely.

* Signs (and plaques) now properly place, and aren't visible through walls.

* Comment to help people in the future.

* Signs and plaques can be placed diagonally now.

* Removes duplicated code line.

* Blank signs now commonly spawn in maint, blank plaques uncommonly.

* Repairing signs & plaques with a welder is now good to go.

* Moves the GLOB, makes it start as an empty list.

* Update code/game/objects/structures/plaques/_plaques.dm

Co-Authored-By: Rohesie <rohesie@gmail.com>

* Gets rid of some oldcode.

* Apply suggestions from code review

Co-Authored-By: tralezab <40974010+tralezab@users.noreply.github.com>

* Simplifying dir switch to two if elses.

* Plaques take one sheet of gold to graft instead of five.

* Just making this wording in crafting a little clearer.

* They can be removed with wrenches, so I don't think this is proper.

* Makes variables descriptive.

* More descriptive variables, a little dmdoc, move things around to be next to like things.

* Remove a redundant definition.

* Apply suggestions from code review

Co-Authored-By: Rohesie <rohesie@gmail.com>

* Fixes mapping path, rename sign_backing to just sign.
