[PORT] Big Manipulator

[ThePastTenseOfYeetIsYote]

About The Pull Request

Ports the better big manipulator from tgstation

Why It's Good For The Game

Our big manipulator bad. Advanced factories good.
This enables easier automation without messing with mechcomp

Testing

I was able to create an automated plasma factory with big manipulator and industrial dark purple extract.
Tested other features like saving/loading tasks with disks. Everything seems to work.

Changelog

🆑 Barrel, Xackii, mcbalaam
code: Ported big manipulator from tgstation. Use monkeys as free labor.

[ThePastTenseOfYeetIsYote]

Also I did make a change compared to tgstation - interact when set to single use and continue will not drop the held item but actually continue down the task list

[cursedforestspirit]

Plebians too scared to learn mech comp adding their primitive automation methods....

[iamcooldan]

I cant seem to figure out how to make the big manipulator work on crates anymore, is that removed?

Like put crates onto cargo shuttle? Just set pick up and drop tasks. Don't even need a monkey for that one
