## About The Pull Request
- Refactors chameleon actions a good bit, reducing a lot of the
boilerplate copied around chameleon items.
- I noticed that the EMP comsig completely disregarded any EMP
protection the mob might have. I split the comsig into
`COMSIG_ATOM_PRE_EMP_ACT` and `COMSIG_ATOM_EMP_ACT` - the former now
used to aggregate protection flags and the latter to actually do EMP
stuff.
- As a result of above, this fixes a few oversights in which things
using `COMSIG_ATOM_EMP_ACT` disregarded EMP protection.
- Adds Chameleon Outfit saving.
- RMB clicking the "Select Chameleon Outfit" will now save your current
chameleon setup as a custom outfit. They become selectable as any other
outfit afterwards.
- Because it might be *too* easy to bamboozle people / might make people
think you're a ling, I added a slight "animation" to swapping whole
chameleon outfits. It's less than a second long.
- Adds the Chameleon Scanner.
- The chameleon scanner is, surprise, a chameleon item that can disguise
as small gadgets or items (toys, cameras, analyzers, etc).
- On LMB, the chameleon scanner will copy the outfit of the target to a
custom outfit slot, allowing you to mimic them entirely without going
through all the menus.
- RMB does the same, but instantly equips the disguise you select in
addition to saving it to a slot.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Right now traitor stealth is very capable but cumbersome, which makes it
much less appealing than just running and gunning.
One big problem with it is that the chameleon kit is rather time
consuming to use. You have to sort through hundreds of items for each of
your chameleon items to find exactly the one you need.
These items seek to amend that time gate, allowing for much quicker
swapping between disguises or picking up the disguise of someone you
kill to replace them like a pseudo-changeling.
## Changelog
🆑 Melbert
refactor: Refactored chameleon actions a fair bit
add: Adds outfit saving to chameleon clothes. RMB the "chameleon outfit"
action to save your current chameleon setup for quick swapping.
add: Swapping between chameleon outfits now has a slight "animation"
associated, to distinguish traitors from lings slightly.
add: Adds a new chameleon item, the "Chameleon Scanner". Use it on other
crewmembers to stealthily save their current outfit as a custom outfit
to use later. And of course, it's chameleon too.
fix: Ethereals, the DNA lock mod, GPSs, and storage items now respect
EMP protection

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.

ELEMENT_DETACH is **not** a requirement to having `Detach` called.
Detach is always called when the element itself is destroyed.
ELEMENT_DETACH is a flag that when set, makes sure Detach is called when
the atom destroys.
Sometimes you want this, for instance:
```dm
/datum/element/point_of_interest/Detach(datum/target)
SSpoints_of_interest.on_poi_element_removed(target)
return ..()
```
This Detach cleans up a reference that would have hung if target was
destroyed without this being called.
However, most uses of Detach are cleaning up signals. Signals are
automatically cleaned up when something is destroyed. You do not need
ELEMENT_DETACH in this case, and it slows down init. This also includes
somewhat more complex stuff, like removing overlays on the source
object. It's getting deleted anyway, you don't care!
I have removed all uses of ELEMENT_DETACH that seemed superfluous. I
have also renamed it to `ELEMENT_DETACH_ON_HOST_DESTROY` to make its
purpose more clear, as me and a lot of other maintainers misunderstood
what it did,
---
An update to this, ELEMENT_DETACH *is* needed for anything that can
register to a turf, as turfs do not clear their signals on destroy.
