"Generic" Crafting Recipes #616

Context

Is your feature request related to a problem?

It's annoying to have to make a thousand schematics for my people when making anything with wood and other blocks with many variants.

Enhancement or Change description

I think it would be very beneficial to allow colonists (like woodcarver) to be able to make a list of craftable resources from a schematic. For example, if I teach them to make oak planks from an oak log, it would be nice to have the ability to tell them to turn all logs into respective planks. This would save a lot of time when dealing with multiple types of trees or blocks with so many variants, and we wouldn't have to waste a dozen recipe slots to tell them to make sticks with whatever's available

Notes or related things

This could work well with a cook's recipe list style menu, where you can choose which blocks to convert so you don't get rid of precious blocks

Having them be separate allows you to divide work between multiple crafters, e.g. having one handle oak and birch while another handles spruce and acacia. And it allows you to deliberately not teach some recipes so that they don't waste precious acacia making sticks.
