[CHERRY-PICK] Repaths sprite accessory lists to be on a subsystem instead of global#757

…om `GLOB` to a datasystem (#82847) This is just a revitalization of #80275. On the tin, basically demotes everything related to setting up and storing these bulky lists generated from reading `/datum/sprite_accessory` subtypes from living in a global space that will instead be in a compartmentalized subsystem for accesses. Also a lot of code modernization and micro-improvements (unquantifiable) Same exact expected results, just accessed in a different way.  There's a few reasons why I want this to happen. * The `GLOB` space is too clogged. There are at least a thousand variables on `GLOB`, and it's extremely painful to access stuff on production/local through view variables when you're debugging stuff like this. It's also painful when there is stuff that _should_ live on `GLOB` that you might want to see in VV/Debugger but are forced to either have to scroll a mile to find what you want or wait a long while for it to load. The less bulky lists we have of stored initialized datums, the better. * `make_datum_reference_lists()` is a consequence of wack stuff like this where we're reliant on certain things being initialized in the `GLOB` portion of world initialization _before_ subsystems/static variables load - most of these datum lists in the aforementioned proc doesn't _really_ need to be ready to go before `world.New()` for example. We'll sadly have to abuse `PreInit()` for now, but it really is something that has to be ready to go due the critical dependence that stuff like Preferences has on it. * We don't have to have the procs live in a global namespace either. Instead of passing in `GLOB.XList` or `DSstorage.XList` every single time, we can instead just move the proc setup on the subsystem and use `XList` in a more native fashion. * It's easier to find what you need. To me, it's a lot nicer to ctrl+click the DS and go to the variables to find something I'm looking for instead of having to scavenge around for any footprint/trace of the global I want to look for. This is more trivial than the other two, but that's something I like to think about when I go to bed. I also had to refactor a bit of the code to accommodate the limitations of the new DS system, but it should be a lot cleaner anyways. Not relevant --- Also nothing should have broken but it's a good thing we have screenshot unit tests to prove me wrong.

This is a cherry pick of tgstation/tgstation#82847 with attempts to update our own stuff to it as well. I am doing this as part of a later cherry pick from timegreen and ghommie which kills off mutant, internal, and external organs
This is being done first as it is not only a dependency, but a notable refactor, and i'd like to save the headache of juggling refactor errors
mirroring the original, this should have no visual changes
