Gandalf 684eab3d31 Converts SFX keys into DEFINES (#65146)
About The Pull Request

Simply converts all instances of soundkeys that use get_sfx from strings into defines.

E.g. "sparks" is now SFX_SPARKS
Why It's Good For The Game

It makes life a lot easier when you're looking for a sound effect. You just type SFX_ and you get suggestions in VSC. Plus, it looks better.

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/Define signals and their arguments in __DEFINES\components.dm
