SkyratBot cab87c97e5 [MIRROR] Add leash component to pAIs that keeps them within range instead of directly teleporting them back, increases default range to max range [MDB IGNORE] (#22745)
* Add leash component to pAIs that keeps them within range instead of directly teleporting them back, increases default range to max range (#77030)

## About The Pull Request

Tries to keep pAIs in range of their owner by moving them closer when
the owner moves, rather than jarringly teleporting every time the owner
gets out of range. Does this by calculating the closest path a nearby
tile and forcefully moving you there. Still a bit janky at times but is
better than teleporting directly onto the owner 100% of the time I feel.
Also prevents you from moving out of range, rather than forcefully
teleporting you back.

Increases the default pAI range to the maximum (9 tiles)

## Why It's Good For The Game

New leashing makes being a leashed pAI significantly less jarring and
obvious. Ideally we would also have a visible max range too.

Default pAI range was pretty small in my testing and I think it's not
unreasonable to think a lot of people won't bother changing it. That
they are leashed at all is the important part.

## Changelog

🆑
qol: pAIs now try to stay within range of their owner, and teleport back
only when necessary
qol: Default max pAI range has been changed to the maximum range you can
choose (9 tiles)
