SkyratBot ff12ce83f4 [MIRROR] Late adjustments to my previous move_loop PR. [NO GBP] [MDB IGNORE] (#21730)
* Late adjustments to my previous move_loop PR. [NO GBP] (#75778)

## About The Pull Request
Lemon guy was a bit too late in reviewing #75732 because it got already
merged by someone else, and I too hadn't managed to make some adjustment
to that PR in time.

This PR applies suggested changes, turns a simple proc into a macro, and
makes it so that also waddling, squeaky shoes and swivel chair sounds
don't running when moved by conveyor belt.

This doesn't stop squeaking from happening when other
conveyor-belt-moved objects or mobs cross its tile. That'd be hacky and
I'm not here to fight sfx-spamming machines.

## Why It's Good For The Game
These are changes that should have been included in #75732 but couldn't.
See that PR for the general idea.

## Changelog

🆑
fix: waddling, squeaky shoes and swivel chair sound effects no longer
run when moved by conveyor belt.

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
