SyncIt21 d36a5af64f Removes material breakdown flags, traits & miscellaneous fixes. (#80389)
## About The Pull Request
1. Removes material breakdown flags i.e. all flags with the format
`BREAKDOWN_XXX`. These flags do nothing, there are no special checks to
transform materials based on these flags, they are passed around just
because certain procs require them for syntax purposes only.

Apparently there were plans to make these flags do something special
from the comment

302247c0d1/code/__DEFINES/construction/material.dm (L43)
But nobody got any ideas for years now. The only special thing we can do
with them now is remove them and reduce code clutter, so let's do that
    
The only flag that ever did something was the
`BREAKDOWN_INCLUDE_ALCHEMY` flag. This only worked when coupled together
with `TRAIT_MAT_TRANSMUTED` trait(which is only used by the reagent
metalgen) and when both this trait & flag are combined together... they
still do nothing

302247c0d1/code/game/atom/atom_materials.dm (L41-L42)
Yup they cancel out each other to prevent returning an empty list, the
traits only job was to prevent materials from being recycled (like why?
what's the benefit of that? nothing) and the flag was meant to bypass
this restriction so both the trait & the flag cancel out each other
therefore doing nothing meaningful. Best remove them both and call it a
day.

2. Fixes an error in displaying number of sheets inserted into a mat
container when that sheet is made up of alloy materials. it would count
as 2 or more because it would take the sum of total material amount
inserted and not the actual sheets. That's fixed now.

3. Remote materials now properly respect the `MATCONTAINER_NO_INSERT`
flag

4. Adds helper proc to insert materials via the remote material
component with proper context
