Joshua Kidder 98135b69dc Subsystems meant to represent/handle in-game networks moved under their own subfolder ( no code changes ) (#90561)
## About The Pull Request

While working on another PR, I noticed that there wasn't any real
distinction between subsystems that function as a network for various
logical components/systems in the code, and subsystems that are meant to
represent what is actually an in-game network. As such, I moved what
seemed to be clear representations of the functions of in-game networks
under their own subfolder.

This should have no effects otherwise.
## Why It's Good For The Game

Per an .md I added in the folder, it helps to clearly demarcate what are
backend programmatic networked systems, and what are meant to actually
be a network in the game itself; the radio jammer disrupts your suit
sensors and headset, not your signal relationships with DCS, and I
believe having that distinction be clear at a glance of the file
structure is valuable.

code: Subsystems that are meant to represent a network in-game have been
moved into their own category inside the codebase.

Networks: Subsystems that are conceptually networked IN-GAME

Specifically, these subsystems are for in-game mechanics that are intended to rely on a digital/radio/physical network, such as telecomms servers or the powernet

The intent of this folder categorization is to be able to quickly reference what are intended to be in-game networks, vs what is logically networked inside the code.

Knowing what is meant to be conceptually working off of an in-game network serves as guidance for adding or modifying features or fixing oversights and/or bugs.

For instance, the radio jammer only affecting headsets and suit sensors could benefit from a shorthand awareness of other systems that are represented as a network, such as research. Using the radio jammer near a server or fabricator could cause it to sever its link to the supply silo or the research web. This example is presented only as such, and not a recommendation on any new features or balance changes.
