[PR] Increase chances for clone defects & add new defects
#34
imho cloner defects that render you in a state where you'd rather just be dead aren't great. being blind until (or if) someone manages to get you a VISOR sucks

allow pre-scanning using saving to disks. security starts with their own disks, other people need to be backed up on one; the cloner no longer has any built-in storage

start wtih a box of 5 next to the cloner, make them cheap to print out at the medical fab -- few people will ever bother.

cloning from a dead body might give minor defects; worse with more decomposition since the necroscan (iirc) was removed. gives a reason to use rotubst implants when you can't afford scans.

worst case the cloner gives you a free record-tracking implant.
