Option starts off by default, since that could be seen as the original behavior...

This was probably bound to happen either way the previous version was based upon a faulty understanding of how the areas worked this is much more robust and only messes with the master areas
and master areas needing power updates call power updates for the each of it's child areas. Also added where messing with SMESes called for an update on all areas power consumption, probably
not required but doing so either way.
We also rebuild the active_areas list every 5 minutes, if you get a engineer that wants to build a new area off of the station with APC's set rebuild_all_areas in the master controller and it will
update instantly, otherwise wait 5 minutes. The only downside to this 5 minutes is you might get free energy until that area becomes active.

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.

We no longer run auto_use_power() on every machine every tick.
We now have a global list of areas, and areas that have an APC in them (all_areas and active_areas) no more looping through world bullshit.
A bunch of snowflakey as fuck machines won't use_power() in their process, you get two options, active and idle, use them!
This means a lot of machines won't double dip on power as well so power usage for the station has dropped about 20%
Because everything is snowflakey as fuck we're going to have some machines that don't force an update on their power usage. Fuck them.
We should catch them with the root obj/machine/proc's forcing updates.
