## About The Pull Request
This PR completely rewrites our embedding system in favor of embedding
datum handlers which acts as containers for all embedding-related data
and logic.
Currently embedding logic relies on an element-component-datum triad,
where elements on the items handle embedding logic, singleton datums
store embedding data and components (which get assigned to ***mobs*** in
whom the item embedded) handle pain and the item being ripped out. How
do we access all the procs? By using comsigs as procs, which is really
bad. This code was written back in 2020 when DCS was hot stuff but in
hindsight this implementation was a mistake, as it heavily restricts
custom embedding behaviors unless you're willing to constantly run
GetComponent (bad, ugly, incarnation of evil)
This PR rewrites all that logic to be handled by lazyloaded
``/datum/embedding``, which is stored similarly to current
``/datum/embed_data``. Upon being requested, it is initialized and
assigned to a parent from whom all the logic is handled, from being
embedded to pain and having the item ripped out. On projectiles this
only handles one proc, after which it copies itself down to the shrapnel
item instead and runs the chain further from there.
Ideally, most embedding-related logic now should be handled purely
datum-side - in most cases items should not be hooking up to themselves
like they did before (unless said logic is for when the item is made
sticky or smth) and instead the code should be handled by the embedding
datum (see sholean grapes implementation in this PR). This should allow
us to do fancy stuff like syringe guns embedding syringes into targets
and injecting them that way, and fix some bugs along the way.

Also fixed a bug with scars not displaying when examined closely from
#86506 because i was in the area anyways
## About The Pull Request
This refactors embedding elements to make them use singleton datums
(similarly to armor) instead being bespoke and creating a new element
every time armor values are supposed to be adjusted.
Default values have been removed from defines due to now being declared
in base class itself.
Additionally fixes vending machines and tackling gloves setting
generated shards (which they instantly embed into their victim) embed
properties to null after running the embedding code, despite said shards
having non-null embedding values by default, making them not be able to
embed into anyone else, also potentially breaking the pain/jostling code
if they somehow get updated.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Current embedding system is an unnecessarily complicated mess as bespoke
elements are hard to work with, and creating a new element every time
you change values is hacky at best. This change should make it easier to
read and work with.
## Changelog

fix: Fixed glass shards generated from falling vending machines or
tackling windows not being able to embed into anyone.
refactor: Refactored embedding code to use datums instead of bespoke
elements and ugly associated lists.

Adds an alternate greentext objective for Wizards known as the "Grand
Ritual". This was initially the gimmick of a different wizard-related
antagonist downstream. I didn't get permission to port it, so I'm
attaching it to regular Wizards instead.
Wizards will spawn in with a new Grand Ritual button next to their
antagonist info button. Pressing it will pinpoint them towards their
next Ritual Location (a randomly chosen region of the space station).
Once within that location, pressing it will summon a magic circle and
obliterate any dense objects which are in the way. This also puts the
ability on a two minute cooldown.
Clicking on the magic circle with an empty hand will begin a three-stage
invocation to gather magical power. You can interrupt this invocation at
any time and will resume from the last stage you completed (if you
finished two stages you only need to do one more).
Once you complete a ritual, a random event will be triggered based on
how many rituals you have performed so far. These tend to be ones which
annoy the crew in some manner, and Wizard Events are included in the
list. Additionally, something weird will usually happen to the room you
are in.
Then you are assigned a new location and can toddle off to do it again.
Once you have done this three times, you will be picked up by the
station's sensors every time you start a subsequent ritual and should
expect annoyed company to come investigate.
Once you have done this six times, you can finally spend all of that
accumulated power on the seventh Grand Finale ritual. Completing this
grants you victory at the end of the round and will have a larger,
flashier effect which you can pick from a list of options, think of it
like a wizard equivalent of a Traitor Final Objective or Heretic
Ascension.
After that you can still keep doing rituals if you want to pester the
crew further by summoning more random events, you've already "won" at
this point so now it's your job to make them want to go home.
I think it'd be more fun to just find out what the Finale ritual can do
by seeing it happen but maintainers will probably want a list of its
precise capabilities, so here it is:
Currently completing a ritual also has a chance to create Heretic
Reality Tears (of both varieties, available for Heretics to eat and
visible to crew) as a kind of cross-antagonist interaction which seemed
to make sense to me but if this seems thematically or mechanically
inappropriate it's easy to strip out.
Makes the code compatible with 515.1594+
Few simple changes and one very painful one.
Let's start with the easy:
* puts call behind `LIBCALL` define, so call_ext is properly used in 515
* Adds `NAMEOF_STATIC(_,X)` macro for nameof in static definitions since
src is now invalid there.
* Fixes tgui and devserver. From 515 onward the tmp3333{procid} cache
directory is not appened to base path in browser controls so we don't
check for it in base js and put the dev server dummy window file in
actual directory not the byond root.
* Renames the few things that had /final/ in typepath to ultimate since
final is a new keyword
And the very painful change:
`.proc/whatever` format is no longer valid, so we're replacing it with
new nameof() function. All this wrapped in three new macros.
`PROC_REF(X)`,`TYPE_PROC_REF(TYPE,X)`,`GLOBAL_PROC_REF(X)`. Global is
not actually necessary but if we get nameof that does not allow globals
it would be nice validation.
This is pretty unwieldy but there's no real alternative.
If you notice anything weird in the commits let me know because majority
was done with regex replace.
@tgstation/commit-access Since the .proc/stuff is pretty big change.

This PR does the following:
Force event menu uses tgUI.
Arranged events into categories, and added a little description to each. The descriptions appear as tooltips when you hover over the Trigger button.
Rewrote how "Announce to crew?" works. It no longer pops up a panel after the event has been already announced. Instead, the admins select it via a checkbox, and the result is passed through an optional argument.
announceChance's comment is tweaked a bit to reflect how it actually works at the moment.
Moved rpgtitles to wizard events, where it belongs.
Fake Virus and Electric Storms show up to observers, as I believe they are not as common as Space Dust or Camera Failure, and should be cancelable.
Potential issues:
This only solves half of #68408, I don't think admin triggering having a timer and a cancel button is a big issue, as it allows other admins to overrule you if needed, but if i is, I will try to fix it within this PR.
Fixes#68408. Events now spawn immediately, and the the announceChance is overwritten before it begins.
My choices for categories and descriptions might not be the best, feedback would be appreciated.
Why It's Good For The Game
The old spawn menu was completely unorganized, and you could only search using the browser search tool. I believe a built in search bar helps with this issue a bit. I also believe that organizing the events into categories, and adding descriptions will help with newer admins who might not be familiar with all events.
Changelog

About The Pull Request
It annoyed me that we have a perfectly good frag grenade item, and a perfectly good shrapnel component, but no crossover episode between the two. This remedies that, and does a lot, lot more.

Big points:
Adds new component: pellet_cloud, which can be used by ammo casings, guns, and landmines to spray shrapnel and display aggregate hit messages ("You're hit by 6 buckshot pellets!" vs "You're hit by the buckshot pellet in the X" x6). All gun ammo that shoot multiple pellets now use this component on firing.
Adds stingbangs, premium less-lethal grenades that shoot off lots of stinger pellets, to cargo. Frag grenades are also reworked to have smaller booms, but shoot off lots of shrapnel shards. You can jump on top of these grenades to absorb a portion of the shrapnel to save those around you! There's an achievement for dying this way, called "Look Out, Sir!"
Projectiles can now embed items/shrapnel. Adds .38 DumDum ammo to cargo that does less damage and has negative armor pen, but can embed in people. This is the only ammo that currently embeds.
Bullets can now ricochet off walls, structures, and machinery (harder surfaces are more likely to ricochet). Only standard .38 and Match Grade .38/.357/L6 ammo can ricochet, with Match Grade being much better at ricocheting. You can buy Match Grade .38 from cargo and Match Grade L6 ammo from the nuke uplink, while Match .357 is admin only.
Armor now protects you from harmful embeds, taking the better of the bullet/bomb armor on the affected limb. Armor penetration can modify this of course, and many blunt embeds like stingbangs and DumDum bullets are significantly worse if you have even 1 armor.
Other misc fixes/changes
Refactored the embed element a bunch and fixed it creating new elements for every instance rather than expected bespoke behavior. There are new /obj/item helpers for modifying and adding embedding.
Fixes#49989: Spears can no longer embed in turfs cause their sprite is annoying to me, it's generally harder for most things to embed in turfs
Fixes#49741: New carbon helpers for removing embedded objects
Fixes#46416: Handles embedded objects getting qdel'd or moved while embedded
Renamed the old shrapnel component for RPG loot to MIRV to avoid confusion
Repathed frag grenades from under minibombs to under base grenades, and added explosion vars to base grenades
Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes a bunch of janky design with embeds, adds lots of new avenues for projectile and grenade variety, ricochets and collateral damage are fun!
Changelog
🆑 Ryll/Shaps
add: Adds stingbangs to cargo (and one in the sec vendor premium), premium less-lethal grenades that shoot off a giant swarm of stingball pellets to help incapacitate swarms of people in tight quarters. You can jump on top of a live one to be a hero and absorb a bunch of shrapnel, same with frag grenades. There's even an achievement for dying to a grenade you jumped on!
add: Projectiles can now embed in people! Or at least grenade shrapnel and the new .38 DumDum ammo, now available in cargo, can. DumDum rounds excel against unarmored targets, but are pricey and do poorly against armored targets.
add: Bullets can now ricochet! Or at least, standard .38 and the new .38/L6 Match Grade ammo can. Match Grade ammo is finely tuned to ricochet easier and seek targets off bounces better, and can be purchased from cargo (for the .38) or nuke ops uplink (for the L6), but standard .38 ammo has a chance to ricochet as well.
tweak: Frag grenades now have smaller explosions but shoot off a bunch of devastating shrapnel, excellent for soft targets!
tweak: Shotguns and other multi-pellet guns now print aggregate messages, so you'll get one "You've been hit by 6 buckshot pellets!" rather than 6 "You've been hit by the buckshot pellet in the X!" messages. Bye bye lag!
balance: Armor can now protect against embedding weapons, taking the best of either the bullet or bomb armor for the limb in question away from the embed chance. Some weapons are better at piercing armor than others!
