Synth Revival Project

[MrMelbert]

Automatons have bee killing us in Helldivers 2 so I owe it to our robot overlords to offer a bone:

This makes Synth disguises work! Like actually! ...Sort of. It's primarily just visual, but some traits are applied too.

• Adds a preference for Synth Race disguise.
• Synths get an Action Button to change race disguise in game.
• When Synth limbs get damaged, their disguise will fall off piece by piece unless they are a full robot synth.
• Healing will restore the disguise (currently). In the future it can be done by Synthflash (as was originally intended).
• Synths can also choose to drop disguise to walk around as full robot if they really want.

Less related:

• I gave some species without lore or description some quick blurbs. Nothing set in stone, intentionally vague.

Probably would be a good idea to add in a way for Synths to get the ability to change their name and voice via admin and code methods, for antag purposes. Could be adding in "Military Synth" again, or just making it something like a spell.
