* Changelings can now speak through their decoy brain if placed in an MMI (#78342)

## About The Pull Request

- If a changeling's decoy brain is placed in an MMI, they will now be
prompted to speak through it.
- They can speak through the decoy even if incapacitated or dead (or
fake-dead).

## Why It's Good For The Game

The oft-controversial ling MMI test has been brought up time and time
again so I figure I throw my cards in for a solution.

We want as few ways as possible for people to hard and fast discover
whether someone is an antag, especially changling which is supposed to
revel in paranoia. This soft-patches out a big way, the MMI test, in
which you place a ling's brain in an MMI to determine if it's vestigial
and therefore, a ling.

Now the ling player can provide some benefit of the doubt by speaking
through the brain as normal, appearing active while actually in their
body still.

## Changelog

🆑 Melbert
add: Changelings can now speak through their decoy brain if it is placed
in an MMI, to maintain the illusion they are actually dead and have been
debrained.
