36d41217f0 Space Ruin Rebalance (#5983)
## About The Pull Request
Rebalances space ruins to remove some of the stupidly overtuned
stuff/nukie gear and add more actually unique items to space that aren't
too powerful.
Also gives a heroic laser musket to black market dealer because I think
they should have access to an energy gun of some kind.
## Why It's Good For The Game
Space contains a literal redsuit for fighting two melee simplemobs and a
nukie smartgun for welding through two walls. By replacing these with
more unique items and adding a bit of extra threat to space on top of
it, it means there won't be ruins that are blatantly overpowered
compared to the rest of space. Also added some new loot and threats to a
ruin that previously had nothing in them so there's a reason to visit
more ruins.
As for the black market dealer there are a lot of situations where
having at least a laser musket would be extremely useful, however this
is entirely dependent on if the Cheap Materials Spawner spawns wood
instead of cardboard, so by giving them a guaranteed heroic laser musket
they have a laser gun that's good for simplemobs and has infinite shots
so they can deal with ruins that spam turrets everywhere.
## Proof Of Testing

/>

Shuttle8532 bridge now has a stormtrooper shotgunner instead of two
melee redsuits, and the room before it has the two melee commando's in
it.
The redsuit and real agent ID corpse has been replaced with a police
modsuit.

/>

The SYN-C BRUTUS armory has had the nukie smartgun inside replaced with
an energy shotgun, similar to the one the warden gets roundstart. Also
adds a single commando with an SMG to the armory.

/>

Removes the literal Deathsquad shell from Waypoint Station, there used
to be a Pulverizer Shell in this locker, it was been replaced with a box
of buckshot and some more aliens were added to the hook shotgun room as
well.

The heroic laser musket in the market.

Replaces some of the syndicate operatives with space-worthy commando's
in the Arborlink Vault, prevents just spacing the entire ruin to clear
it instantly.

one from cargo that has slight armor and an advanced jetpack module.
Adds some pirates that were trying to crack the safe themselves.
