Joshua Kidder df0e0811c2 Significantly increases stamina recovery on most effects that provide it (#83556)
## About The Pull Request

Currently, stamina healing is a niche side effect on many drugs, besides
a few effects (mostly heretic powers, an obscure side effect of some
drinks) that actually contribute to a significant shift in gameplay
style when you use them. In this PR I significantly increased the
stamina recovery on almost every drug and some effects that provide it.

Points of interest (not completely inclusive):
Syndicate stimulants heal 12 instead of 5 stamina damage. This will
bring you out of stam crit in two cycles, and let you heal out of the
slowdown from the stamina damage from a baton strike. The current rate
of 5 takes 5 seconds to heal out of stam crit, and the stamina reset
takes place before you heal out of stamina damage slowdown.
Bath salts heal stamina at the rate stimulants used to. Meth heals
stamina slightly slower.
Changeling adrenaline will instantly bring you out of stam crit if
you're in it; otherwise, it will heal 10 stamina damage.
Ephedrine heals 4 stamina per life, instead of 1.
Being so drunk that you black out and give up your body to ghost control
will make you heal stamina more quickly than an ascended rust heretic.
You will also likely be dying of liver damage.
## Why It's Good For The Game

At the levels they are set, most of these stamina healing effects have
almost no effect on gameplay whatsoever except in the case of tanking a
couple of extra disabler shots (only in the case of the high end drugs),
or being able to do stamina consuming tasks slightly longer (breaking
boulders, grinding with pestle and mortar, working out, ???).

Adjusting these numbers would make these drugs an actual factor in
combat situations that rely on stamina crit (stun batons, ebows, stamina
damaging poisons and diseases). Most of the drugs already have side
effects such as brain and organ damage, which in the current state
hugely outweighs any reason to use most of them besides a few that give
a movespeed buff or prevent baton knockdown (ephedrine, stimulants).

This only affects stamina healing. There has been no change to any other
interactions with things that knock down or cause any other kind of
stun.

These changes are in consideration of the fact that taking stamina
damage puts you in a cooldown before you can recover your stamina
naturally. Effects that cause steady stamina damage will bottom out your
stamina the way they do now, unless you use something to heal it.
