Curing code rewrite

Hey folks,

I've just uploaded a massive rewrite of the code that handles all our four basic cures: herbs/slices, poultices/salves, tinctures/pipes, and serums/elixirs - all code has basically been remade from scratch. Not only does it make the code a lot easier for us to work with, it also consolidates Reanimation and Concoctions, which in certain places had their own duplicate versions of code (sometimes with discrepancies between the two).

Here's a short list of the major discrepancies that got resolved.
- destroyed_throat now affects injecting serums. Previously only affected drinking elixirs, and eating herbs/slice.
- Bulimia no longer affects drinking, since it didn't affect serums.
- Drinking/Sticking off balance is no longer possible, bringing it in line with other cures.
- Spirituality Sear now affects poultices. Was previously only working on salves.

And lastly, there's an experimental new config: CONFIG CUREMSGS. This config will allow you to change how you see the usage of cures, so I can switch it to 'undead' and will perceive everybody in the game as using undead cures, even if they're using living cures.

If you notice anything amiss with curing, please file a bug or message me.

Penned by my hand on the 11th of Haernos, in the year 442 MA.
