Subject: [PATCH] Fixes spam-clicking on Nar'Sie destroying eardrums (#92470)

<!-- Write **BELOW** The Headers and **ABOVE** The comments else it may
not be viewable. -->
<!-- You can view Contributing.MD for a detailed description of the pull
request process. -->

## About The Pull Request
Fixes #92454 by making it so Nar'Sie can't be spam-clicked at the speed
of light to spawn infinite cult shells and blow up your ears.

Instead, clicking on Nar'Sie will now give you an input box asking if
you want to become a harvester or not.

Additionally, cultbanned individuals can no longer interact with her
either.

<!-- Describe The Pull Request. Please be sure every change is
documented or this can delay review and even discourage maintainers from
merging your PR! -->

## Why It's Good For The Game
Nar'Sie no longer escapes into the real world and does grievous bodily
harm to your ears when some joker decides to spam-click her.

Additionally, it feels smoother to click Nar'Sie and be able to
immediately become a harvester, versus clicking Nar'sie and then having
to twiddle your thumbs for 10 seconds waiting for the ghost query to
end.

<!-- Argue for the merits of your changes and how they benefit the game,
especially if they are controversial and/or far reaching. If you can't
actually explain WHY what you are doing will improve the game, then it
probably isn't good for the game in the first place. -->

## Changelog

<!-- If your PR modifies aspects of the game that can be concretely
observed by players or admins you should add a changelog. If your change
does NOT meet this description, remove this section. Be sure to properly
mark your PRs to prevent unnecessary GBP loss. You can read up on GBP
and its effects on PRs in the tgstation guides for contributors. Please
note that maintainers freely reserve the right to remove and add tags
should they deem it appropriate. You can attempt to finagle the system
all you want, but it's best to shoot for clear communication right off
the bat. -->

:cl:
fix: Nar'Sie can no longer be spam-clicked as a ghost and destroy ears
via infinite shell creation.
fix: Cult-banned players can no longer interact with Nar'Sie
qol: Interacting with Nar'Sie as a ghost no longer creates a ghost query
and instead allows you to immediately become a harvester after
confirming you wish to become a harvester.
/:cl:

<!-- Both :cl:'s are required for the changelog to work! You can put
your name to the right of the first :cl: if you want to overwrite your
GitHub username as author ingame. -->
<!-- You can use multiple of the same prefix (they're only used for the
icon ingame) and delete the unneeded ones. Despite some of the tags,
changelogs should generally represent how a player might be affected by
the changes rather than a summary of the PR's contents. -->
