For some reason, when you cancelled summoning an ERT it would say that
you could not find any candidates (there wasn't a poll to begin with,
the summon was cancelled), so I moved messaging to
`proc/make_emergency_response_team()` so that we can better communicate
that.

What it was doing was by and large fine, HOW it was doing it SUCKED
I've cleaned it up and the nearby code some, notable hits include:
- random if check in secrets ui that was totally unused
- proc called add that actually set
- lists not defined as such
- stupid var names
- proc args which did nothing
- code which did nothing
- oververbose code
- proc/var names with no spacing at all
Note: This might have changed behavior accidentally, I've done my best
to test but we'll need to look out for issue reports in coming days.

Converts `/datum/player_details` into `/datum/persistent_client`.
Persistent Clients persist across connections. The only time a mob's
persistent client will change is if the ckey it's bound to logs into a
different mob, or the mob is deleted (duh).
Also adds PossessByPlayer() so that transfering mob control is cleaner
and makes more immediate sense if you don't know byond-fu.
Clients are an abstract representation of a connection that can be
dropped at almost any moment so putting things that should be stable to
access at any time onto an undying object is ideal. This allows for
future expansions like abstracting away client.screen and managing
everything cleanly.

## About The Pull Request
Before there were two settings for human authority:
`ENFORCE_HUMAN_AUTHORITY` and `ENFORCE_HUMAN_AUTHORITY_ON_EVERYONE`
The first, if enabled, would not let non-humans be heads of staff unless
they had a specific var on their job set to TRUE.
The second, if enabled, would simply ignore that var and reject the
non-human anyways.
This PR replaces both of those settings with a single one,
`HUMAN_AUTHORITY`. You can set it to one of four settings:
* "OFF": human authority will be turned OFF. Non-Humans will be able to
be heads of staff.
* "HUMAN WHITELIST": human authority will be turned OFF, HOWEVER; if a
job has its new `human_authority` variable set to
`JOB_AUTHORITY_HUMANS_ONLY`, then whoever picks that job will be forced
to be human.
* "NON-HUMAN WHITELIST": human authority will be turned ON. However, if
a job has its `human_authority` variable set to
`JOB_AUTHORITY_NON_HUMANS_ALLOWED`, a non-human can become that job.
This is what we have now, it works the same as if
`ENFORCE_HUMAN_AUTHORITY` were turned on. This is also what I've set as
the default value.
* "ENFORCED" human authority will be turned ON. Non-Humans will never be
able to be heads of staff. This is what
`ENFORCE_HUMAN_AUTHORITY_ON_EVERYONE` used to do.
You can also now set the `human_authority` variable through
`jobconfig.toml`!
## Why It's Good For The Game
Allows more configuration options for downstreams, and lets keyholders
and headmins have more options over how to set up human authority.

## About The Previous Pull Request
#85308 reverted by #85929

~~Causes the round to not start when a player isn't eligible for any
jobs at a specific priority level due to runtimes trying to `pick()`
from an empty list aborting the entire job assignment stack.~~
(Fixed???? by
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/85947/commits/e0e9f2f430079d4ab7097abe12e75f934131a638)
Maybe we should test merge this for a mo just to make sure no more
cheeky runtimes pop up before merging.
## About The Pull Request
This PR does a couple of minor things:
Makes the job debug logging a bit easier to follow.
Minorly brings some SSjob code up to code standards, converting proc
names to snake_case and doing some otherm is cleanup.
Refactored some stuff into different procs, updated some comments.
And some major things:
Changes the job assignment logic.
Old behaviour
> Assign dynamic priority roles
> Force one Head of Staff (if possible)
> Assign all AIs
> Assign overflow roles (bugged in 2 ways)
> Shuffle the available jobs list once, at the start of the random job
assignment loop
> Pick and assign random jobs for random players from High prefs down,
with a priority on Head of Staff roles
> Handle everyone that couldn't be assigned a random job
New behaviour
> Assign dynamic priority roles
> Assign all Head of Staff roles to players with High prefs
> If no Head of Staff was made in the above way, force one Head of Staff
(if possible)
> Assign all AIs
> Assign overflow roles (fixed)
> Prioritise and fill unfilled head roles at each job priority pref
level, from High prefs down.
> Build a list of all jobs that each unassigned player could be eligible
for at the above pref level.
> Pick a job from that list at random and assign it to the player.
> Handle everyone that couldn't be assigned a random job.
In reality there should be little impact on overall job assignment, the
code changes read more as semantics. For example, the priority check for
filling Head slots will have the same candidate pool in both old and new
versions, but in the new version we're more clearly saying that Heads
are important and we want to prioritise filling them for the sake of
round progression even though the outcome in new and old is the same.
A key change will lead to an increase in assistants - Overflow fixes.
Currently the code block to do early assignments to the Overflow role
doesn't work - or works but not as you'd expect. The idea was is that
because enabling the Overflow role in the prefs menu is an On/Off toggle
that sets the job to High priority when enabled and prevents any other
High priority pref, players that have the Overflow role enabled will
**always** get it. It's their highest priority job with infinite slots.
So we do a pass right at the start to give everyone with the Overflow
role enabled that role and save us wasting time later on in random job
code giving them that same role but with more work.
The problem is the code for this only assigns the Overflow role to
people with it set to Low priority in their prefs, resulting in log
readouts like:
```

```
Where nobody gets pre-assigned the overflow role because their prefs are
all set to the High priority from being toggled... Except wait a second,
some people have it at Medium priority when it should just be a No
Role/High Priority Role toggle?
And herein we meet a problem. My hypothesis is that traits and stuff
that change the overflow have allowed players to set the "ordinary"
overflow role of Assistant to Medium and/or Low priority.
This still shows as enabled in the prefs menu, but leads to an outcome
where a player with assistant enabled is assigned Cook instead.
```

So players with the Overflow job pref set to Low (an unexpected state,
should be disabled or High) would be guaranteed to get that role if none
of the higher priority Head of Staff/AI/Dynamic roles took over via the
bugged "force overflow for people with the pref enabled" proc.
Players with the Overflow job pref set to High would be guaranteed to
get that role if none of the higher priority Head of Staff/AI/Dynamic
roles took over via the random job assignment code giving them their
Highest priority role thanks to the infinite job slots of the Overflow.
And players with the Overflow job pref set to Medium (an unexpected
state, should be disabled or High) would get Assistant if the shuffle
step of the available jobs list put Assisstant before any of the other
jobs they had prefs enabled for at Medium that weren't already filled,
otherwise they'd get another random job.
This code is now changed to ignore the priority the player has set when
looking for people to fill the overflow role. As long as it **is**
enabled, the player will get it unless they're forced into a dynamic
ruleset role (AI when malf rolls) or a Head of Staff role due to their
other prefs (they have RD set to med or low, and no other player has a
Head of Staff at high so they get randomly picked and miss the overflow
role).
This will increase the number of assistants in shifts where their pref
state has Assisstant in the bugged Medium priority, but doesn't change
it for bugged Low and not-bugged High/On priority.
On the other side of the coin, we have how the random jobs are picked.
They're kinda not random, and I noticed this reading the logs then
reading the code.
The list of available jobs to pick from is randomly shuffled - but only
**once**. All players pull from a list of jobs in the same order. So you
end up with a log block like this:
```

```
The list is shuffled into an order of something like `list("Scientist",
"Botanist", "Cook", "Sec Officer", ...)` then iterated over for each
player. So every random job selection goes:
> "Does Player1 have Scientist enabled and at the right priority? No?
Okay, Botanist? Yes? You get botanist."
> "Does Player2 have Scientist enabled and at the right priority? No?
Okay, Botanist? Yes? You get botanist."
> "Does Player3 have Scientist enabled and at the right priority? No?
Okay, Botanist has no slots left so we'll remove it from the list. Okay,
Cook? Yes? You get cook."
> "Does Player4 have Scientist enabled and at the right priority? No?
Okay, Cook has no slots left so we'll remove it from the list. Okay, Sec
Officer? ..."
This can lead to stacked individual departments if it gets randomly
rolled to the start of the list in the shuffle, and completely empty
departments if they end up at the end.
On high pop shifts this is probably less of an issue. Player prefs add
noise to this and as departments at the front fill up, those at the back
pick up some of the lower pref players.
But have you ever had a shift where there's just like... No fucking sec
even though there's tons of players? The logging (before I made changes
in this PR) was a bit ass, but my hypothesis there is that sec officer
was shuffled right at the end of the random job list, so every other
department was filled up before sec officers were picked.
To mitigate this, I made the list shuffle every single time the game
picks a random available job for the player. This should lead to a more
balanced selection of available jobs by avoiding situations where the
code is biased towards packing some departments by accident.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Overflow fixes mean people who go to their prefs and see the Overflow
Role is On will all have the same experience - They will be the Overflow
role.
More random random job selection should prevent individual departments
having a jobs be stacked when it would have otherwise been possible for
a more balanced selection but the code unintentially biased random
departments to be overstaffed and understaffed each shift.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Having the Overflow Role set to On will properly ensure you get
that role at a High priority as intended by the game code.
fix: Job selection is now a little bit more random. Fixes an
unintentional bias in random job assignment that could lead to
feast-or-famine for roles where everyone is assigned one job and nobody
is assigned another job.

* ERTs can now be summoned as a set species (#85651)
## About The Pull Request
This repurposes the redundant `mobtype` var on the ERT datum. Originally
used to store the typepath for what mob the ERT would spawn (which was
unchanged on any of the other datums), it is now null by default and can
be modified in the summon_ert verb menu. If left blank, it will default
to humans, but it can be set to any humanoid species.

## Why It's Good For The Game
As stated previously, mobtype was redundant, as it would either always
spawn humans (human authority would immediately humanize the spawned
mob) or be overridden by the preferences of the player being spawned.
Rather than making it a hardcoded value and deleting the var, I've
elected to repurpose it for further ERT customization.

Okay, Cook has no slots left so we'll remove it from the list. Okay, Sec
Officer? ..."
This can lead to stacked individual departments if it gets randomly
rolled to the start of the list in the shuffle, and completely empty
departments if they end up at the end.
On high pop shifts this is probably less of an issue. Player prefs add
noise to this and as departments at the front fill up, those at the back
pick up some of the lower pref players.
But have you ever had a shift where there's just like... No fucking sec
even though there's tons of players? The logging (before I made changes
in this PR) was a bit ass, but my hypothesis there is that sec officer
was shuffled right at the end of the random job list, so every other
department was filled up before sec officers were picked.
To mitigate this, I made the list shuffle every single time the game
picks a random available job for the player. This should lead to a more
balanced selection of available jobs by avoiding situations where the
code is biased towards packing some departments by accident.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Overflow fixes mean people who go to their prefs and see the Overflow
Role is On will all have the same experience - They will be the Overflow
role.
More random random job selection should prevent individual departments
having a jobs be stacked when it would have otherwise been possible for
a more balanced selection but the code unintentially biased random
departments to be overstaffed and understaffed each shift.
## Changelog
🆑
fix: Having the Overflow Role set to On will properly ensure you get
that role at a High priority as intended by the game code.
fix: Job selection is now a little bit more random. Fixes an
unintentional bias in random job assignment that could lead to
feast-or-famine for roles where everyone is assigned one job and nobody
is assigned another job.

## About The Pull Request
This one's a bit complex, stay with me here.
So, the ERT system has support for enforcing all ERT members to be
human, or if they will be spawned as their selected species.

This addresses plasmamen by including plasmamen outfits that are
equipped prior to the actual outfit they're given, added in #56987.

Despite this support, plasmamen never spawn as plasmamen, as they are
missing the `ERT_SPAWN` changeflag. This is because as the body is
created, the ERT spawning system human-ifies them to prevent them from
exploding. This system existed in place prior to #56987, but it didn't
work.

Fortunately(?) #58870 fixed it, but in doing so nullified the work done
in #56987 as plasmamen could no longer be plasmamen when the
`plasmaman_outfit` check was reached. They had already become human.
If this reads a bit weirdly its because this was originally just going
to be an issue report. I finished writing it and decided "well why not
just fix it instead dorkus".

## Why It's Good For The Game

* Items in your hands can catch fire (#83867)
## About The Pull Request
Recently we allowed items held in your hands to catch fire if you catch
fire.
This makes sense but the code had a few oversights, then we reverted it.
This PR reintroduces the feature, but with a few refinements.
The basic feature is simple: If you are on fire then items you are
holding will also catch fire, in the same vein as items you are wearing
on your head or hands.
There are also a few caveats we forgot about the first time we added
this:
- If your gloves cannot catch fire, your held items will not catch fire
(because your hands aren't on fire).
- If you are extinguished, your held items will also be extinguished.
- Stopping, Dropping, and Rolling on top of any items will also
extinguish those items.
As part of this change, after an argument about whether or not this is
an oversight in coding-general, I've made the proc `get_equipped_items`
take a bitflag instead of a series of booleans as an argument and added
a new one for "include held items", so that we need no longer argue
about whether holding something counts as "equipping" it (in all other
parts of the game than this proc, it does). This is what gives the PR
most of its code footprint, don't be scared.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Items you are holding in your hands _should_ catch fire if everything
else on your person is on fire, and taking an item off of your body to
put it in your hands shouldn't protect it from fire, because those
things don't make intuitive sense.
If we want an item to be able to catch fire when worn, then it should do
so.
This might expose some issues where we were improperly setting the
flammability flags on items, but any weapon which will burn in your
hands now would also have burned if you were wearing it on your belt or
back, so making those issues more visible should be a bonus (we'll also
stop them from burning on your back or belt).
If you see someone holding a piece of paper that you really don't want
them to read you can now set them on fire to stop them from reading it,
whereas previously they would deftly hold the very flammable object out
of reach of their flaming body.
## Changelog

balance: Items held in your hands can catch fire.
balance: Items you are holding won't catch fire if your hands cannot

When I made SSpolling, jlsnow gave me his blessing to delete the orbit
polling component [where you orbit something for 20 seconds before it
chooses a ghost from the orbiters]
It's only used in a few places like soulstones replacing
jobbanned/inactive players, etc.
Also upgraded SSpolling; you can now place a little icon on the sides in
the chat message, chat message looks a lot nicer, the alert pic and the
jump target don't have to be the same anymore, and I made it be able to
pre-pick candidates since 90% of the use cases would just want 1
candidate
Also prints to chat who the chosen one was
Also made slime intelligence potions ask the user for a reason, which
will be displayed in the alert poll
## About The Pull Request
Revived my old PR https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/pull/68901
Replaces the annoying tgui alert popup "Do you want to be X? | Yes | No
| Never for this round" that is hard to read and steals window focus,
with a nice clean alert in the top right that counts down. If it's the
same event/mob they stack with 2x, 3x, etc. It also shows how many
candidates/ghosts are signed up.
The poll alerts have screentips too, they countdown and show if you're
signed up, how many people are signed up, if you chose "never for this
round" (which is cancelable)
## Why It's Good For The Game

Way easier to see what role is available, you get a nice pic of the role
and get it's name in big text, you can cancel "never for this round",
and you can cancel signing up for a role before the timer is up
## Changelog
🆑
refactor: Ghost roles now offer ghosts a clickable poll button. Ghosts
can select a role, deselect it, alt-click it for "Never For This Round",
can cancel "Never", can see the countdown, and can see how many other
people are signed up for the role poll.

* Fixes greyscale colors not updating when changing their colors via VV, and fixes some issues with accessories (#77806)
## About The Pull Request
Fixes https://github.com/Skyrat-SS13/Skyrat-tg/issues/23214
This fixes a few bugs and cleans up code a bit:
1) Greyscale colors that were changed via the VV modify greyscale menu
will now update the mob's worn clothing accordingly. It wasn't doing
this before. Accessories in particular needed a bit of extra work to
update in this way because it wasn't coded with this case in mind.
2) Accessories will call `equipped()` and `dropped()` when they get
added/removed. This will fix issues like item flags being incorrectly
set, action bars not being added, etc.
3) Accessories will now be returned by `get_all_gear()`. This will
probably fix a few issues I'm not aware of.

## About The Pull Request
Removes all of the duplicate global lists for specific machine types
where the only thing they do is store all machines of that type.
Adds machine tracking to SSmachines in the form of a list for all
machines, and then an associative list for machines by their type.
Previously we have machines in multiple global lists, such as airlocks
being in GLOB.doors, GLOB.airlocks, GLOB.machines.
This makes that not a thing, and also means that iterating through
GLOB.machines looking for a specific type is no longer as expensive.

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.

* Removes overlay queuing, saves 6/7 seconds of initialize. Lightly modifies stat tracking macros
So we have this overlay queuing system right? It's build with the assumption
that the "add to overlay list" operation is real expensive, and is
thus useful to queue removals or additions.
It turns out that it just isn't, at least during init. In my testing the
operation of queuing took LONGER then the actual overlay add/remove did.
That's ignoring the cost of the subsystem's work.
I've also modified part of the stat tracking macro, since it took a good
bit of cpu time, and didn't seem to well, do anything. So far as I can
tell it always evaluates to 1

This removes code/__DEFINES/misc.dm and moves all the defines to either:
another existing define file
new define file
local .dm file if the define was only used in one file
I also deleted defines that were not being used and added documentation to all of the ones that were moved out of misc.dm
Why was this needed? People were basically using the misc.dm file as a dumpster to toss all their defines into that was creating one giant mess. The defines have been organized into their proper groups and files now.

About The Pull Request

Splits game preferences into its own window.
Antagonists are now split into their individual rulesets. You can now be a roundstart heretic without signing up for latejoin heretic, as an example.
