Beta summary 0.17-x

The 17th version brings 2 big changes to the engine and hard metal production branch.

Deep work was done on optimization: the method of executing recipes was completely redone (the speed of the machine does not increase the load on the PC), the wires are redesigned, which now creates separate electrical networks (there is no longer a dependence on FPS)
