ChungusGamer666 1bede4dcff Acid particles (+unsorted acid/burning/thermite component changes) (#75248)
This PR is way less than the file changes make it seem like it is.
Okay, first, the boring part:
- Picking up burning items is now a signal registered on the burning
component itself, instead of being a direct /obj/item/attack_hand()
check
- Sear sound now has an SFX define for convenience, since it is very
commonly used
- Fire stacks when extinguished on mobs will no longer clean acid on
items (WTF?)

Datum Component System (DCS)

Concept

Loosely adapted from /vg/. This is an entity component system for adding behaviours to datums when inheritance doesn't quite cut it. By using signals and events instead of direct inheritance, you can inject behaviours without hacky overloads. It requires a different method of thinking, but is not hard to use correctly. If a behaviour can have application across more than one thing. Make it generic, make it a component. Atom/mob/obj event? Give it a signal, and forward it's arguments with a SendSignal() call. Now every component that want's to can also know about this happening.
