John Willard f1f46275f0 Removes tablet hard drives entirely (HDD & SSD) (#70678)
* Removes HDD's entirely

HDDs have been removed, though the code for it is still currently lingering as it's required for portable disks. I'll have to find a solution to this one day, but as I am going to sleep, this is a problem for future me.

* starts on removing SSD

* updatepaths and kills off SSD

* update path :D

* Fixes to programs and icons

* Ready for review now

I read over everything I did and tried to fix anything I saw wasn't done right. Hopefully better comments now.

* merge conflict  fix

* can't win them all

* takes viruses into account in paths, fixes it in snowcabin

* Renames the updatepaths

* removes the qdel loop

* accidentally new'ed programs twice

* Fix program's computer var

* destroy pen and disk, dont run kill program on something killed

* more fixes for pens and idle threads

* Fixes PDAs installing apps twice.

* simplifies inserted disk & PDA disk

* fuck's sake

* Use istype instead

* revert

* Revert "revert"

This reverts commit 9ede628c6fef9c7c86417234f6d8ada1ff9e2fef.

* why did that happen

* Update code/modules/modular_computers/computers/item/tablet.dm

* MC_SSD added to master lol

Modular computer programs

How module computer programs work

Ok. so a quick rundown on how to make a program. This is kind of a shitty documentation, but oh well I was asked to.

Base setup

This is how the base program is setup. the rest is mostly tgui stuff. I'll use the ntnetmonitor as a base

/datum/computer_file/program/ntnetmonitor
	/// This is obviously the name of the file itself. not much to be said
	filename = "ntmonitor"

	/// This is sort of the official name. it's what shows up on the main menu
	filedesc = "NTNet Diagnostics and Monitoring"

	/// This is what the screen will look like when the program is active
	program_icon_state = "comm_monitor"

	/// This is a sort of a description, visible when looking on the ntnet
	extended_desc = "This program is a dummy."

	/// size of the program. Big programs need more hard drive space. Don't
	/// make it too big though.
	size = 12

	/// If this is set, the program will not run without an ntnet connection,
	/// and will close if the connection is lost. Mainly for primarily online
	/// programs.
	requires_ntnet = 1

	/// This is access required to run the program itself. ONLY SET THIS FOR
	/// SUPER SECURE SHIT. This also acts as transfer_access as well.
	required_access = access_network

	/// This is the access needed to download from ntnet or host on the ptp
	/// program. This is what you want to use most of the time.
	transfer_access = access_change_ids

	/// If it's available to download on ntnet. pretty self explanatory.
	available_on_ntnet = 1

	/// ditto but on emagged syndie net. Use this for antag programs
	available_on_syndinet = 0

	/// Bitflags (PROGRAM_CONSOLE, PROGRAM_LAPTOP, PROGRAM_TABLET combination)
	/// or PROGRAM_ALL. Use this to limit what kind of machines can run the
	/// program. For example, comms program should be limited to consoles and laptops.
	usage_flags = PROGRAM_ALL

	/// This one is kinda cool. If you have the program minimized, this will
	/// show up in the header of the computer screen. You can even have the
	/// program change what the header is based on the situation! See `alarm.dm`
	/// for an example.
	var/ui_header = "downloader_finished.gif"
