Now certain weapons can strike faster or slower than usual. No weapons currently do this as this PR just lays the groundwork for that.
The click delay can also be modified with traits. The slime agility modifier makes attacks happen 25% sooner.
Adds debug test verb to display a weapon's DPS. It's really basic but should be sufficient for future force adjustments I might do in the future.
* Adds three flame-themed illegal Mech weapons. Allows anything using apply_effects to be incendiary and ignite/apply firestacks. Also absolute-paths the spilled fuel effects.
* Removes world << because I'm a good coder honest.
* Why does Git do this for no reason.
* Creating new objects is cheap, in fact comparable to the cost of getting it out of the pool, so it doesn't help there.
* Placing items in the pool is far more expensive than letting them garbage collect due to the resetting of vars and such.
I assume these were all lazy copy-pasting. We're changing computer icons to another set in a file we'll keep separate, and these completely pointless references are annoying. They should inherit this from the `/computer/` level, which they do. Has no effect on Polaris, but cleans up code that shouldn't exist.

Adds a fairly simple system that allows adjusting various numbers like max health, incoming damage, outgoing melee damage, etc. The nice part is that changing certain variables this way (like max health) is a lot safer than manually setting the max health var directly.
Changes a lot of short lines of code to point towards a variable's getter or setter helper instead of reading the var directly so the modifiers can work.
Endoarmor, delayed toxin sting, Enfeebling sting, and recursive adrenaline overdose now use the modifier system.
Enfeebling sting now only lasts two minutes, from five minutes, however it now also reduces the victim's melee damage by 25%/50%, and increases the damage they suffer by 10%/35%, for normal and recursive respectively.
Delayed Toxin Sting's effects are now felt all at once instead of over the course of a few minutes.
Links many map-specific details such as the station name, z-level information, and allowed jobs from global vars to map datum vars, which should help us maintain multiple maps at once in the future, which will be needed for the future Southern Cross.
Note that a config change will be needed to change GENERATE_ASTEROID to GENERATE_MAP, otherwise no changes should be required to continue normal map usage.
To change to a different map, it's suggested to tick the file that ticks all the other needed files, which for the Northern Star is called northern_star.dm.
Sort of annoyng to have it named the same as an actual power cell, with a different max charge. If it's going to have a unique charge amount, it should have a unique name. High-cap cells are 10k, super are 20k, so this is some weird between-cell with 15k.
