Resume butchering

[inogenous]

Summary

Features "Resume butchering"

Purpose of change

Allows resuming previously started butchering activities. Fixes #42586 .

Describe the solution

This is done by storing a var on the corpse item with the progress. For example, aborting a dissection after 90% has been completed will store var DISSECT_progress=0.9 on the corpse.

Displays percent of previous progress in the butchery ui, if it has already started earlier.

Describe alternatives you've considered

We should migrate the butcher activity from the old activity classes into "new" activity_actor classes - but that's for another PR.

Testing

• Dissected lots of zombies by selecting them individually. ✓
• Placed several zombies on the same tile and selected "Butcher everything". All zombies are correctly butchered. ✓

Additional context

The idea of storing a var on the corpse was already suggested before: #26113 (comment)

Huge gamechanger, blob bless u

You probably shouldn't be able to 99% dismember a corpse and then start doing a full butchery on it etc but idk how to suggest changing it to accommodate for that

I think we can disallow finer butchering methods when a cruder method is already in progress. Alternatively, we can allow resuming butchering with a different method, and return butchering results based on the percentage of each method chosen once the methods' total progress reaches 100% or as soon as you pause butchering.

Thank you all for good ideas.

Have added another commit here now that implements this. For example, starting "quick butchery" will make "dissect" unavailable. A butcher type is considered more crude than another type if it takes less time to complete.
