Takes a pass at updating ATMOSPHERICS to take advantage of the new powernet changes.
Also removes var/on definitions from many atmos machines. Machines generally shouldn't
be doing "on" things if they aren't using power, and most players don't expect a machine
to use power if it isn't "on," so I guess this is fair game.
Also, further refactoring.
Because single line of text is so easy to miss in spammed chat. Now it automatically shows output of show-laws verb which is significantly harder to miss.
The purpose of this is to allow for testers on our test server without them having advance proc call which can do some fun stuff with python, etc.
Also removes debug controller so that testers can't just edit the configuration to remove debugparanoid
The default config is the status quo, you have to go out of your way and set this option in config to remove proccal from R_DEBUG
This should have little/no gameplay effect right now, just paving the
way for directional lights.
Replaced handle_rotation() on buckly things with this.

This is mainly for wizard and cult rounds, where it is important to know that a wizard/cultist is watching. The announcement was added for most other types of leaving/joining the ghost realm. Admin ghost doesn't get announced for obvious reasons.
This actually removes some stuff from asay and msay. The only place where admins and mods(/mentors/whatever) are distinct now is msay, and only in name: admins have their nick colored like their OOC chat (though this can be changed in stylesheet.dm). Also added the feedback thingy proc call and did some code cleanup.
Removes the unused (and abused) set-player-OOC-colour verb.
Adds definitions for each rank to the stylesheet, moving it from the OOC file.
Updates the OOC-text-color verb accordingly.
Made the custom OOC text color resetable.
Cleaned up hardcoded values, old code and comments.
Synthetics can no longer magically print color images on a black-and-white photocopier.
No longer possible for organics to acquire a synth-image by un-attaching it from a newscaster.
News articles now come with a timestamp and photo captions, if anything was penned on an attached photo.
Reception-checks no longer unconditionally sleeps the thread. Was causing havoc with NanoUI.
Misc. code refactoring.
Previously missed Z-level checks in the form "z != X". Utilized this regex which hopefully has cought most of them [zZ](\s?)(!?)=(\s?)(\d+).
Adds more Z-level configuration, admin levels.
Now possible to configure 3 different kind of Z-levels.
Station levels: Which Z-levels the station exists on.
Contact levels: Which Z-levels are typically affected by, for example, Code Red which alters the visual state of fire alarms.
Player levels: Which Z-levels a character can typically reach.
One can one access and view newsfeeds from the comfort of one's PDA.
Possible to change and disable the newsmessage beep.
Known issues:
Unlike browse() NanoUI does not appear to wait for browse_rsc(), the method which to transfers image to the client's cache, to finish.
This often results in newsfeeds not always displaying their images the first time they are viewed.
