New Defender Strain: Heatshield

[TheKillfish]

About the pull request

Adds new strain for Defender called the Heatshield, which trades movement speed, some armor and all base abilities except for Lower Crest in exchange for 50% resistance to fire damage and some new abilities:

Passive
Gain a tiny amount (3) of armor-bypassing burn damage applied to your slashes and tail slam. Fires on yourself don't last as long.

Vomit Bile: 40 Plasma, 10 Second Cooldown
When not on fire, extinguish targeted burning turf or allies while hostiles get covered in a flammable substance.
When on fire, lose the ability to extinguish turfs and allies but instead directly set hostiles on fire (requires 2 rolls or 1 roll and patting to extinguish).

Self-Immolate: 60 Plasma, 10 Second Cooldown
Vomit bile on yourself and set yourself on fire after a 3 second wind-up.

Thermoregulation: 80 Plasma, 20 Second Cooldown
Only usable when on fire. For 5 seconds, gain buffs to movement and attack speeds. Extinguishes you once the buff wears off.

Bundled in this PR is #10923 as this strain uses one of the changes included.

New Xeno content is cool.

what the hell is a carbuncle

[TheKillfish]

A mythological creature. I probably could've picked a better name, since the first thing you'll find is a medical term...

[thwompa]

1. atomize the refactor and the strain into separate pr's ($30 says someone alr asked you to do this
2. change the name man idk what a car bunkle is

we need less mechanics like fire/bullet immunity, not more

[Venuska1117]

If new strain somehow fail to be added, could you still do second PR that add Refactors to fire immunity? i would like to see it used in future strain/castes ideas.

add: Adds Carbuncle strain for Defender.

you forgot to rename it in the CL

[TheKillfish]

Oop, good catch. Fixed

[Henri9576]

Would it be possible to allow it to heal or be affected by pheros while on fire? I find that is still a big issue with fire immunity and I don't imagine setting yourself on fire would be a good tactic when you lose all healing and phero effects when doing so.
