Village building upgrades

This patch brings a way to upgrade village buildings, adding a form of meaningful long-term progression without directly affecting player power.

First batch of upgrades

• [Stockpile] Pocket Dimension - Increases your inventory capacity by 1 slot per upgrade point, up to 10 extra slots
• [Alchemy lab] Efficient brewing - Chance to not consume materials when crafting health and mana potions
• [Alchemy lab] Bottomless bottles - 30% chance to not consume the potion item when drinking a potion
• [Trading post] Fire sale - Torches will no longer cost money

Gatekeeping of boss-specific crafting

In addition to actual upgrades, crafting items from boss drops is locked behind symbolic upgrades that cost a small amount of the corresponding material. The goal is just make it more obvious that this NPC will craft items from these boss drops. Here are the upgrades in question:

• [Forge] Stormforged arsenal - Unlocks crafting of accessories from storm essences
• [Forge] Arcane craftsmanship - Unlocks crafting of items made with arcane power orbs
• [Engineer's workshop] Light it up - Unlock the crafting of lamps
• [Engineer's workshop] Drop-tuned innovation - Unlock recipes that require Mysterious energy cores
• [Engineer's workshop] Ghost in the gears - Unlock recipes that require Advanced AI modules

Minor changes and bugfixes

• Fixed a bug that prevented flower seeds from actually spawning flowers
• Electric herb grinder is now significantly faster (10X the previous speed)
• Fixed the size and alignment of DPS text above the damage analyzer
