Prestidigitation spark can now light things on fire on-click. #407

First ever PR laugh at this idiot.

About The Pull Request

Adds a function to the "spark" function of prestidigitation. This lets the user light any non-mob clickable object in range on fire.

Why It's Good For The Game

  1. Minor tricks like this add potential for flavorful use by players. This shouldn't make prestid any more powerful in combat, especially since mages already get access to a few fire spells, but there's always room to rebalance it by requiring adjacency or tying it to the spark's cooldown. For now, I'm keeping it as available as possible to get players to figure out you can do this now.
  2. The D&D fifth edition rules, which let's be honest all of prestid's effects pull from already, states this as something the spell can do: "You instantaneously light or snuff out a candle, a torch, or a small campfire." I'm not limiting it to two items and a structure, so have fun lighting sticks and webs from range until it's inevitably reeled back.

I plan to add more non-combat functionality to spells as I learn how to work with BYOND. Here's just something simple to start, and I do plan to see what else is possible with prestid.

feel free to remove the changes to fighter for the next merge. I'm planning on adding in a thing for easier weapon XP in another PR and don't know if it'll still be relevant by then.
