Make pristine tools stackable

[ThePiachu]

A bit related to https://github.com/StrangeLoopGames/EcoIssues/issues/18619 and #1086 .

It would be nice if pristine tools were stackable. Perhaps they could come in some "wrapping" or what have you and upon using that item it turns into a normal tool with normal durability. Then you could have work stations for repairing the tools with normal work orders that would turn a damaged tool into a pristine tool in wrapping and stack it. This way you could have "tool repair stores" that are more automated. You would lose the material savings from having a high skill, but you could perhaps gate the tool repair with like, a level 5 skill and apply material savings based on Upgrade Module or something.

This would make tool stores require less bulk storage, be automated, let people do job orders for tool repair and in general be an improvement over the current system that's more in-line with the 0.9 changes.

So here is a sample solution to how this could be implemented:

Basically, the idea would be this:

• All tools and other "unique items" such as tools come in some kind of "assembly box" or whatever you'd like to call it
• Those boxes have the same carfting recipe as the standard tools, while you can't directly craft those tools anymore
• Those boxes stack to 10/50/100/whatever
• You can "consume" those boxes to turn them into regular tools at 1-to-1 ratio, and those come with their usual durability
• You get new recipes for repairing those tools - they take the regular tool plus some materials you'd normally use for repair, and the recipe spits out a tool in a box
• Only tools can be repackaged this way, other items like unique buildings can't be repackaged

What this change does:

• Removes the repair mechanic altogether, that whole screen can be scrapped
• Makes pristene tools stackable (smiths will love it!)
• Lets you run automatic repair shops (again, smiths will love it)
• Makes the repair efficiency tied to Upgrade Modules (not a bad change honestly, although it would mean the Tool Bench might need one of them, or the stone tools will always repair for full value?)
• Makes other items also stack, which will help some stores be a little bit neater

We have IUniqueStackable interface which may be implemented by Tools. It allows to define conditions when items may be stacked. I.e. for durable items it may be something like

bool CanStack(Item stackingOntoItem) => this.Durability == 1f && stackingOntoItem.Durability == 1f;

Well, it's about storing the tools and also repairing them automatically as a bonus, which might be hard to do as-is.
