Polymorph Anomaly

[Sendir]

Polymorph Anomaly

Adds a new anomaly type, Polymorph, alongside the existing pyroclastic/gravity/electricity/etc. anomalies.

What it does

• On each pulse, every living creature within range is forcibly and temporarily transformed into a random creature drawn from a weighted table (90 possible outcomes - see below). Duration scales with the anomaly's severity and the specific entry rolled.
• On supercritical, the effect triggers again over a bit larger radius, with a chance for the transformation to become permanent instead of timed. This chance is 20% and dying or critting still reverts it.
• Both the science anomaly generator machine and the artifact XenoArtifactAnomalySpawn node can now roll this anomaly like any other type.

Working on the fix for the polymorph during save. I'll get that PRed as soon as I'm back from Vacation and then pull this in.
