* Grammar fixes to atom descriptions
- Capitalization and punctuation on most descriptions
- CentCom instead of centcom where appropriate
- Earth instead of earth where appropriate
* Remove spaces before newlines and oneline some strings
In cases where you're creating an image to use as an overlay, it makes more sense to use a mutable_appearance if you can. The image will create a static appearance for not just the image but also each intermediate step if you change vars along the way. The mutable appearance avoids this unnecessary and expensive process. The only situation that requires an image instead of a mutable_appearance is if the overlay is supposed to be directional. MA's ignore direction while images don't. I dunno why, probably another BYOND-ism.
I added a convenience function, mutable_appearance(), designed to emulate image(). Also went ahead and set the default plane of /mutable_appearance to FLOAT_PLANE because it's fucking 0 by default.
Several overlays that were image() calls were changed to just text strings when I could. overlays += "string" has the same result as overlays += image(icon, "string") and saves a proc call.

add: Whenever you automatically pick up ore with an ore satchel, if you
are dragging a wooden ore box, the satchel automatically empties into
the box.

Because convinience. Streamlining. Less pointless clicking.
Added two new materials, Titanium and plastitanium. Titanium is naturally occuring, and plastitanium is an alloy made of plasma and titanium.
These materials can be used to build shuttle walls and floors, though this serves no current purpose.
Before you yell "SNOWFLAKE" about the materials, I have definite planned purposes for them, not to mention what else they could be potentially used for (mechs, R&D, etc.)
You can use titanium to make white shuttle walls that smooth (like the ones of the escape shuttle), and plastitanium to make the grey syndie shuttle walls. You can also make floor tiles out of each material for the different shuttle floors. This PR itself doesn't change any of the paths on the map to use smoothed shuttlewalls and I'll save that for a seperate PR.
Also this PR makes ORM code better and allows people to easily add new alloys

Added priority overlays to atoms, which will not be removed when overlays are cut and will always remain on top when new overlays are added. This requires everyone to use add_overlay() and cut_overlays() instead of overlays += and overlays.Cut(). These procs are found in __HELPERS/icons.dm, and the priority overlay list is found in game/atoms.dm. Everything else is replacing deprecated overlay manipulation.
Fixes graphical bug #14343 with extreme overkill. If the coin has an attached wire, it won't flip. Someone else might want to instead fix the animation so that the wire moves with the coin.
