SkyratBot c34cd6fd3d [MIRROR] More code compression for reagent holder [MDB IGNORE] (#25121)
* More code compression for reagent holder (#79796)

## About The Pull Request
Part 2 of #79686 where we trim down the size of `holder.dm` even further
and in the process give some procs more advanced features as they get
merged with their counterparts.

**1. Removes & merges `get_multiple_reagent_amounts()` proc with
`get_reagent_amount()`**
The proc `get_multiple_reagent_amounts()` was only used by bio generator
and 1 other item with its only use being finding the sum of all reagents
present in the list returned by
`typesof(datum/reagent/consumable/nutrient)`. Currently the approach is
very inefficient because.
- `typesof()` is an expensive call which returns a long list of reagents
- `get_multiple_reagent_amounts()` would then use 2 nested for loops.
One to loop over every reagent in this holder & another inner for loop
to loop over every reagent returned by `typesof()` operator so the time
complexity of this proc is overall multiplicative which in lamen terms
means "Bad"

We can replicate the same behaviour of `typesof()` by using the
`type2parent()` proc and 1 more direct type check to get the exact same
behaviour but with much faster results, therefore reducing overall code

**2. Removes & merges `get_reagent()` proc with `has_reagent()`**
The proc `has_reagent()` is way more advanced than `get_reagent()` with
arguments requesting for a specific amount, metabolization and now even
has a new argument i.e. `chemical flag`. `has_reagent()` has always
returned the reagent reference directly and not a simple TRUE/FALSE so
it is a perfect replacement for `get_reagent()`, therefore reducing
overall code

**3. Removes & merges `has_chemical_flag()` proc with `has_reagent()`**
The proc `has_reagent()` can now look for a specific reagent with a
specific chemical flag as well as mentioned above thus it can replace
`has_chemical_flag()` therefore reducing overall code

## Changelog

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.

See/Define signals and their arguments in __DEFINES\components.dm
