* Mail sorting helper, and disposals fixes (#70861) ## About The Pull Request  This PR adds a mail sorting map helper, which during Late Initialization will apply a sorting location index to the mail sorting disposals pipe under them. I have replaced the varedits with all mail sorters with the appropriate map helpers. I have thoroughly tested this, making sure packages arrived to every location, where possible. I have also fixed a few issues with the disposals network: **Tramstation** - One of the random maintenance segments had a place with no disposal pipes. This has been fixed - A sorter was looking for chapel and library packages, but it actually meant to look for engineering packages - There was no dormitory mail sorter, I have added one **Metastation** - There was no dormitory mail sorter, I have added one **Icebox** - There is no experimentor lab in icebox, but there is an "experimentation" lab, which is good enough, so I have added it as a location **Deltastation** - There was no dormitory mail sorter, I have added one - Virology was not connected to the disposals network. However, on every other map, it has a one way connection. I have hooked it up just like that, so virology mail will arrive safely, and virology trash will go into space as usual. **Kilostation** - Genetics packages were rerouted to the psychologist office Unsolved issue on kilostation: there is no experimentor on this station, and there is no space for a disposals in the circuits lab, so sadly, if you send a package to this destination, it will come back to the mail sorting office. **Future improvements** The TAGGERLOCATIONS list, which is used to retrieve the labels of the various tags, is frankly unorganizable, and hard to expand. I have delayed fixing this for a future PR. I kinda wish to remove the sortType variable, as it is no longer necessary to have it around with these helpers, but sadly, this would ruin downstream maps, so I have no plans for this at the moment. ## Why It's Good For The Game While mapping, having to constantly compare a comment in flavor_misc.dm to figure out what to varedit a disposal mail sorter to is rather annoying. These map helpers, similar to the access helpers, will help with this issue. Its also good if mail actually arrives. ## Changelog 🆑 qol: added a mail sorting map helper, to allow mappers to create disposal networks faster fix: fixes several non working disposal mail targets that never received their packages /🆑 * Mail sorting helper, and disposals fixes * vr fixes Co-authored-by: Profakos <profakos@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Jolly-66 <70232195+Jolly-66@users.noreply.github.com>
