[CLOSED PR] Sets cloning with records to FALSE
#4

Make cloning from prescans / disks take way way longer than normal cloning. Give the clone implant some visible / audible / textual / whatever indication that it is there on the death of the implanted person.

This way an antag killing a person knows that the person has been prescanned and there is some time to sabotage the cloning even if someone hit the Clone button immediately. In theory it could even be an interesting dynamic, hard to say if it'd do anything in practice. But it'd give antags a decent chance to prevent their victim from being cloned.

At the same time this lets people that got prescanned for azone purposes or other such stuff come back. They would spend some time as a ghost due to the longer cloning time of prescans so there would be some more weight to the death but it wouldn't remove them from the round permanently.

The azone thing is a fantastic point, especially if you're going somewhere nobody else would want to go.

..though I just hope that the increased cloning time doesn't stack horribly with advanced genetic analysis, otherwise we'll have to beg engineering for multiple cloning pods every round..
