[NONMODULAR] Modularized Mining Maps & Iceland

[CliffracerX]

About The Pull Request

We need a way to support custom mining Z-levels that are robust, easily-configured and not dependent on code additions - and moreover, we need them to be able to properly set up multi-Z mining levels.

Why It's Good For The Game

Lets us have Hearthkin every round without issue, and makes a much more interesting environment for mining than just Lavaland every time. Opens up possibilities for additional mining types, or even randomized types per-round.

Changelog

🆑 Dawson, SylvetteSylph, CliffracerX
add: Iceland, a 3-Z mining level replacing Lavaland
del: Lavaland has been removed from mining-Z rotation
code: the necessary support for modular mining maps

Add Dawson's and your own name after 🆑 for changelog purposes.

Mining base is still in need of better-functioning lower Z-levels entrances (I provided CliffracerX a few in-progress additions to mitigate this, but there is still a missing z1 public entrance). Ideally, mining base might be better off reworked entirely in the future to befit the Z-level changes.

in addition to multi-z mining would it be possible to have horizontally arrayed mining zs? like how space zs work basically

I'd need to do some testing, but tentatively, yes! Ditto for making horizontally arrayed station maps, too.

wawa

still warrants fixes to snowstorms (/surface/outdoors/nospawn doesnt get snowstorms for some reason) but the map itself is fine and the code Runs. might still want approval from a code lead before merging though

[CliffracerX]

@ this point we've done all the code things that can be done short of fixing the weird snowstorm jank (probably not a code thing we can fix, thanks TG), and with multiple other things now backed up bc it's not merged yet I'm maintainerbussing to get this fullmerged
