Waste Not, Want Not

Incentivizes Duplicants to prefer eating leftover, more stale food to minimize food wasted to rotting. Also adds a freshness control slider to Refrigerators and Ration Boxes to allow only fresh foods to be stored in them.

• Duplicants will prefer food stacks with a lower freshness when all other factors are equal, limiting waste due to rotting leftovers. Note that Duplicants will still prefer closer food, and food with a higher Food Quality, before choosing older leftovers.
  
• A minimum food freshness can now be specified for Refrigerator and Ration Box to disallow food staler than a user set threshold from being stored there.
  • This setting does not apply to items that cannot rot like Berry Sludge or Medicine.
    
  • This setting tends to work best with Auto-Sweeper due to how Duplicant fetch chores are batched.
• Tiny Food chunks of less than ten grams (most commonly generated by rounding errors) will disappear when rotting instead of generating Polluted Dirt.
