Adds a craftable airlock pump that is an atmos device with distro & waste nodes on a single side.
When wrenched down, looks for airlocks and sets up a cycling airlock chamber.
A more compact and flexible alternative to the current binary DP Vent Pumps.

Can also skip cycling when a shuttle is docked with one of the external airlocks:

Provides an easy to map and setup alternative to DP Vents that doesn't require any map helpers, var editing and can even be crafted in the game.
You just need to extend the disto/waste pipes to the place where you want your airlock to be.
When built, it automatically considers the first found airlock in the direction of incoming pipes as an internal one, and the opposite - external.
Cycling is controlled by the airlocks. When you click/bump an internal airlock, it starts pressurizing. When external one - depressurizing.
When unable to complete the cycle in 10 seconds, unbolts the door automatically to avoid stucking due to issues with pipes or slow atmos.
