* Gibs/Dead bodies no longer produce miasma

Miasma production as it is now is too little over too long a time span, and it just ends up spreading across the
station and having little effect. My goal here is to remove a source of uninteresting gas from the station's
air, and make corpses and gib piles more infectious.
I've placed the cap on disease payout at a strength of 7, so there's a slight chance of a positive disease, but
I think it's counteracted by the danger presented by just infecting yourself till you get what you want.

I've rewriten the rot component to just run a percent chance to infect someone with a disease based on the type
of rot, and moved almost all of its behavior to signals. There's one portion I can't rewrite without making
significant changes to how I handle atmos sensitivity, so that'll come later.

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.

See this thread for an introduction to the system as a whole.
