VMSolidus 19ca517509 Non-Destructive Universal Language (#899) ...

# Description

UniversalLanguageSpeakerComponent has NUMEROUS issues, which previously
were easy to ignore since it was a language only obtainable by Admins.
But now that it's both a Psionic Power(And a trait that adds said
power), the issues with it have been highlighted. Here's just a FEW

1. UniversalLanguageSpeaker overwrites all known languages, preventing
you from speaking anything else
2. It overwrites the ability to use sign language.
3. It also overwrites the Mute trait.

To fix that, I've made it follow *MOSTLY* the logic all the other
languages use, so that it's less of a special snowflake case. Now if you
have access to it, it will appear in your language list alongside other
languages, rather than fully replacing the entire list. That way you can
intentionally choose not to speak in a language understood by all.

Fuck it, I also added the ability for the TraitSystem to just call
LanguageSystem and directly add arbitrarily any desired language, rather
than needing a component to do so.

# Changelog

🆑
- fix: UniversalLanguageSpeaker(And Xenoglossy by extension) will now
appear in your language menu alongside other known languages, rather
than replace all known languages. You can effectively now choose whether
or not to speak it, or to use a normal language.
- add: Traits can now add Languages directly.
- add: Traits can now remove Languages directly.
