This ports a whole bunch of various PRs and commits from
https://github.com/effigy-se/effigy-se , with heavy refactoring to keep
it fresh for /tg/'s code standards.
## About The Pull Request
The whole slew of announcement touchups lately (as in #78995
(37db1ecbf8) / #79052
(12308dbd3d)) have made me realize how
much this stuff sucks. The author of these new spans was advertising
these in coding general, so I sat down and coded it. Look at the spans,
they're much nicer than what we had going on:
(ignore the capitalized alert status names, this was removed)
<details>
<summary>Dark Mode</summary>
</details>
<details>
<summary>Light Mode</summary>
</details>
This PR also features
* Major announcement code handling cleanup and refactor! There was a lot
of copypasta so let's distill it all down into one proc
* Better cacheing! We were doing a shit load of new string generation
needlessly! That's fixed now.
* Better string concatenation! Lists are better for string tree reasons.
It still works just as well, as you can see from the screenshots above.
Best of all, no fucking `<br>` dogshit everywhere!
* We don't use string equivalency in order to figure out the "type" of
an announcement. It's all defines now. This was a bonus that I just
coded in since it irritated me.
* Minor spellcheck of "announcement".
* All of our HTML string mangling stuff is now all span macros! I love
macros.
## Why It's Good For The Game
In the same vein of adding examine blocks (#67937
(b864589522)) because old examinations
tended to blend in with the chat and everything chat-wise used to suck
really hard- I think this is a really nice way to draw attention to
announcements in the chat box without needing a shit load of line breaks
that just really look ugly and have no real consistency. You can look at
the PRs/commits I linked above for an idea of just how ugly it could be
getting.
I haven't audited every announcement in this PR, we can tweak this down
the line.
## Changelog
🆑 LT3, san7890
add: Announcements have gotten a fresh coat of paint! They should be
popping with splendid new colors and should have a lot less ugly
linebreaks, while still managing to keep your attention at the screen.
/🆑
I know we didn't need to port all the CSS themes but I added them
anyways in case admins wanna have some fun.
There can probably be more code improvements, just figured I'd crack it
out while I had time.
The colors also seem fine, let me know if we need more redness or
something. It's okay for stuff to be toned down a bit imo, but that
should be done after a hot second.

## About The Pull Request
The emergency shuttle maintains its security level coefficient and does
the calculation instead of outside procs that aren't aware of what alert
it was when the shuttle was first called.
If the shuttle auto-call timer should be capped at the current security
level timer, that can be done in a different PR.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Fixes https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/issues/78159
## Changelog
🆑 LT3
fix: Emergency shuttle should correctly scale timer up/down when
changing security levels

## About The Pull Request
**Simplified version of #72179**
### SOUNDS
Changes next sound files:
- airraid.ogg
- bloblarm.ogg
- alert.ogg
Adds next sound files:
- notice3.ogg
- announce_syndi.ogg
Now `announce.ogg` plays when a Captain joins round, and
`announce_dig.ogg` for Requests Console announcements.
The `announce_syndi.ogg` plays when an announcement is made through an
emagged communications console. It also plays when the evacuation
shuttle is fully hijacked or Cultists fully corrupt the evacuation
shuttle.
You can listen to them all here:
https://github.com/tgstation/tgstation/assets/42353186/10c5e597-6db7-464a-b693-f5a2672dc3d0
_All of the sound files are either made by me from existing sounds in
the game or taken from freesound.org and properly credited._
### STATUS DISPLAYS
Status displays are fully replaced with the addition of a few new ones.
<details>
<summary>Status display monitor</summary>
</details>
<details>
<summary>Misc displays</summary>
</details>
<details>
<summary>Alert displays</summary>
</details>
Now the communications console Status Display menu replaced the "Red
Alert" display option with the "Current Alert" which showcases the
current alert display.
Also, the Status Display menu has an additional "Radiation" display
option.
## Why It's Good For The Game
I believe this Pull Request is a good game for a couple of reasons:
1. It better conveys the gravity of emergency situations, such as Code
Red, by utilizing a more intimidating and recognizable sound. This gives
more weight to these situations, making them feel more urgent and
important in the game. Players always tend to not notice that it's in
action.
2. The replacement of the old and outdated Status Display sprites with
newer, more eye-catching ones is a great improvement. This helps to
emphasize the importance of emergency situations even further by making
them more noticeable. Status Displays was one of the last wall-mounts
using ancient sprites.
3. The Captain's arrival using another sound effect from other
announcements gives more status to the Captain as the ultimate head of
the station.
4. Heads announcement using `announce_dig.ogg` makes the sound itself
more used outside of SM cascade, and also makes Head announcements more
noticeable.
5. Emagged console using `announce_syndi.ogg` making Traitor
announcements more noticeable. Also, it is played after evac shuttle is
fully hijacked or corrupted by Cultists giving a more ominous effect
