About The Pull Request
Rewrites the entire preferences menu in tgui. Rewrites the entire backend to be built upon datumized preferences, rather than constant additions to the preferences base datum.
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.
This iteration matches parity, and provides very little new functionality, but adding anything new will be much easier.

Major TODOs
Quirk icons, from @Fikou (with some slight adjustments from me)
Lore text, from @EOBGames (4/6, need moths and then ethereal lore from @AMonkeyThatCodes)
Heavy documentation on how one would add new preferences, species, jobs, etc
A lot of specialized testing so that people's real data don't get corrupted

* Datumizes all uses of change_view
* Cleanup and helper procs
* tweaks values to match the format, hint hint, (value - 0.5) works just fine
* And there's the rest
* woop, braindamage
* and one more
* fuck you menu file
* woops
* we should apply that
* fixes tooltip drift, thank you goon coders
* you can shake but you can't zoom
* Unicode support Part 2 -- copytext()
This is the transition of all copytext() calls to be unicode aware and also some nearby calls in the same functions. Most things are just replacing copytext() with copytext_char() as a terrible character limiter but a few others were slightly more involved.
I replaced a ton of
````
var/something = sanitize(input())
something = copytext(something, 1, MAX_MESSAGE_LEN)
````
with a single stripped_input() call. stripped_input() already calls html_encode(), trim(), and some other sanitization so there shouldn't be any major issues there.
This is still VERY rough btw; DNA is a mess, the status displays are complete ass, there's a copytext() in code\datums\shuttles.dm that I'm not sure what to do with, and I didn't touch anything in the tools folder. I haven't tested this much at all yet, I only got it to compile earlier this morning. There's also likely to be weird bugs until I get around to fixing length(), findtext(), and the rest of the string procs.
* Makes the code functional
* Assume color hex strings are always # followed by ascii.
Properly encodes and decodes the stuff in mob_helpers.dm which fixes some issues there.
* Removes ninjaspeak since it's unused
