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.

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.
* Added the ability to make Apiaries and Honey frames with wood
* Added the ability to make Royal Bee Jelly from 10 Mutagen and 40 Honey
* Added the ability to make more Queen Bees from Royal Bee Jelly by using it on an existing Queen, to split her into two Queens
* Made homeless bees more obvious
* Fixed a typo that made almost all bees homeless, severely reducing the odds of getting honeycomb
* Made bee progress reports (50% towards new honeycomb, etc.) always show, even if it's 0%
* Made some feedback text more obvious
* Fixed being able to duplicate the bee holder object, this was not exploity, just weird
* Fixed being able to put two (or more) queens in the same apiary
* Fixed some runtimes from hydro code assuming a plant gene exists
* Fixed runtime when you use a honeycomb in your hand
* It now takes and uses 5u of a reagent to give a bee that reagent
* Removed unused icon file
Beeboxes have honey_frames which determine the amount of honeycomb+bees they can maintain.
Bees now have a beegent (Bee reagent, geddit?) that they use during their attacks AND that their produced honeycomb contains, this allows you to farm chemicals using bees.
