Title: Changes to Cloning

- Added efficiency scaling. Build or rebuild cloners using better parts to improve speed of cloning and resource use (aka less biomass used per clone)
- Cloning slowed down massively. Cloning now takes MUCH longer (Somewhere between 3 and 6 minutes). Further multipliers are x2 and x3 for respective parts levels. Maximal cloning speed is still a fair bit slower than before, but it's an improvement
- Biomass uses goes from 150 (3 meat, normal) to 75 (1 1/2 meat) and finally 50 (1 meat) in the same fashion

You now have to WORK towards making it easy to clone people. Otherwise cloning will stay some sort of efficient but snowflakey machine to revive people with damage so massive defibbing can't be considered
