Subject: [PATCH] Disposals delete remains (#18707)

* Disposals delete remains

Disposal chutes now delete any digestion remains when they flush, making them a safe place to throw them away.

As for why we want this option: New players often do not know how to handle digestion remains, not knowing you can destroy them in-hand. Understandably, they just bin them, but this gets them into trouble with exposing others to messy skulls. Alternatively, it also allows players to spice up their scenes a bit by just dumping skulls casually without the risk of squicking anyone!

* Corrects typed loop
