Add Admin Fax System
About The Pull Request
Thanks to @kawoppi for giving me the opportunity to finish my implementation.
From the moment I put the fax functionality in the build, I planned the implementation of this system. The only reason I didn't do it right away was because I wanted to see how relevant the fax mechanics would be in the build. And now I'm ready to present my implementation of a fax messaging system similar to the Requests Manager system.
Why It's Good For The Game
With this system, players will be able to send messages to a specially generated list of virtual faxes when accessed or hacked, and administrators will be able to read messages and send responses.
Changelog

The CC and Syndicate colors look extremely offensive, could you tone them back a bit? Clown Planet too but yellow is.. a color.

Correction, this is an example showing that TG-based assemblies can set their own list of faxes.

White text on neon bright color. 💀
If I'm understanding that second screenshot correctly you can write faxes with the menu, that's really useful! Does it also allow you to use paper markdown when writing a fax that way?

Yes. The paper is based on plain HTML. I originally tried to do a preview, but I couldn't beat the FPS sagging.

I still don't understand why players need to be restricted in this way.
