Adds a 'take' option to ahelps and mentorhelps. Can be used by
admins/mentors to quickly let the asker know their ahelp/mhelp is being
dealt with. Other admins/mentors can see it too, so it should reduce the
dogpiling effect where every online admin/mentor answers at once.
Based on: https://github.com/Baystation12/Baystation12/pull/15902/files
Currently, to_chat is literally just a proc that does user << message.
But it'll let us do output modification in the future, especially for
something like Goon's HTML chat.
Big thanks to PJB for his to_chat script, see
https://github.com/d3athrow/vgstation13/pull/6625 for more details.
Adds a config option MENTORS which sets the variable config.mods_are_mentors
Adds a rights level of R_MENTOR which gets msay, private message, aghost, notes, and a new proc for checking for new players (requires database support).
If the confic option for mentors is set then
the ckeys listed in moderators.txt file will instead be set as mentors, you can still make moderators by adding them in admins.txt
staffwho will show Mentors instead of Moderators as the heading above the listing of non-admins.
Also: Players now get a message gently reminding them to click the name of the staff member to reply instead of ahelping over and over.

- Server will now send adminhelps to the admin channel, with information if there is no admins online.
- Server will inform the admin channel if the last admin online logs out.
- When a round ends, the server will alert the main channel, supplying some statistics.
Additionally, laid the groundwork for an external scripts system.
This is fully configurable/togglable in the config.txt file.

- Added killswitches to all Enter() and Entered() procs to try to determine if movement is the source of all the constant lag we're having. Toggle the killswitch with the 'disable all movement' verb, available in debug verbs.

Toggling these preferences in-game will update your savefile. Meaning that your preferences will persist between rounds.
Added some savefile_version updating stuff. It's pretty crude. If you're changing any of the savefile stuff just ask and I can change it/help.
Removed some unused client vars
Ghosts no longer hear ambience. Simplified ambience code.
Simplified lobby music code. It will no longer cause a massive queue of events (which would eventually balloon in memory use)
Moved ooccolor and sound_adminhelp back to prefs. It's easier and allowed me to remove the setupclient() stuff completely.

They include such procs as sanitize_integer(num, min, max, default) which will check num is a number, round num to make it an integer, then check if it is between min and max (inclusive). If it fails the bound-checks it will return default. There are others, have a look.
PERSISTENT PREFERENCES: Every ckey which connects to the game gets its own persistent /datum/preferences datum.
It is archived in var/list/preferences_datums = list("ckey" = datum)
At connect it is automatically associated with the client defines.dm (or a new one is created if it can't find an archived prefs datum). This means clients will ALWAYS have a var/datum/preferences/prefs which references this datum. So you can use it without checking if(client.prefs)
This has simplified only a few bits of code. It will however, allow us to make preferences like see_deadchat ghost_ears etc, persistent. So they will not reset when you DC.
SAVEFILES: Changed the player savefile code a lot. Hopefully I've not fucked it up too much. Every single variable loaded from saves is now sanity checked using the new sanity procs. This should help prevent savefiles becomming obsolete by sanitizing input to meet current requirements, without deleting all the ok variables and making you start from scratch >_> NOTE: I still need to sort out the savefile version stuff. I'll probably figure it out before the server updates anyway. It sees to be fine without it.
You can no longer choose your blood type. It is randomised (with each bloodtype having a realistic probability of occuring). This is to make blood analysis (detective/medical) less pointless. It is chosen as soon as you connect. It remains persistent throughout each round so you won't be able to change it by logging in/out over and over.
Replaces some copypasta code with is_afk() (still a fair bit to do)
There are new hyperlink shortcut things. _src_=vars will direct your hyperlink to viewvars. _src_=prefs to your preferences datum. (These are the only way to access those bits of code via links). This means that the overall amount of operations in almost every Topic has pretty much halved and is much prettier.
Replaced and removed adminplayervars from datum/admins/Topic. It was superfluous. They now all point directly to the viewvars code using _src_=vars
Removed the changelog popup at round start. Instead a button on your game-window will glow white if there are new updates. To peruse at your convenience. This will speed up connect times.
Removed the AFK_THRESHOLD define. It is integrated into is_afk() now.
TODO: remove the prefs stuff from mobs and clients and update code to use client.prefs to access that info.

Before, when making a link to an admin tool, you done this:
<a href='?src=\ref[C.holder];parameter=1;>link</a>
Now, we do not need to use a reference to direct it to places like usr or usr.client.holder (or client, but you never needed src for that anyway)
usr: <a href='?_src_=usr;parameter=1;>link</a>
holder: <a href='?_src_=holder;parameter=1;>link</a>
This basically allows us to move a LOT of code outside of loops as we no longer have to create a \ref for every recipient of the message. They can all be sent identical links. A simple example of this would be in pray.dm Although it's most noticeable in the adminhelp code which is vastly simplified.
Adminhelp name spotting code thingy...whatever... looks for ckey matches first, then surnames, then forenames. This is to stop it possibly weirding out if there is a station full of "Ed"s of "Sarah"s
Prayer code no longer loads a new icon into memory every time a prayer is sent. Use image() not icon()!
key_name() no longer needs a reference for it's admin_link argument.
message_admin() pretty much doesn't need those extra arguments for finding and replacing %holder_ref%. I've got to go through all the code to check before I remove it though.
