SkyratBot 01080dfe0a [MIRROR] Makes sure COMSIG_ATOM_EX_ACT is always called. [MDB IGNORE] (#10498)
* Makes sure COMSIG_ATOM_EX_ACT is always called. (#63685)

Creates a wrapper macro for ex_act() and moves the signal and contents explosion calls to there. This way we can ensure the signal is always fired. Also desnowflakes reagents responding to explosions.

Ensures that a signal is always called when the attendant proc is called.

* Makes sure COMSIG_ATOM_EX_ACT is always called.

Datum Component System (DCS)

Concept

Loosely adapted from /vg/. This is an entity component system for adding behaviours to datums when inheritance doesn't quite cut it. By using signals and events instead of direct inheritance, you can inject behaviours without hacky overloads. It requires a different method of thinking, but is not hard to use correctly. If a behaviour can have application across more than one thing. Make it generic, make it a component. Atom/mob/obj event? Give it a signal, and forward it's arguments with a SendSignal() call. Now every component that want's to can also know about this happening.
