Converts /datum/gas_mixture/var/graphic to a lazy list.

* The vast majority of gas mixtures never use their `graphic` list.  Prime candidate for making a lazy init list.
* While we are here, add nullchecks to ZAS's use of the graphic list a bit.  /turf/update_graphics was technically already null safe, but its even better to not bother calling it at all right?
