Better Trial Chambers

Overview

Significant feature expansion including new dungeon mechanics (bonfires, key golems), wire infrastructure improvements, UI enhancements, and numerous bug fixes. All the features are in the process of being made to redo the "main" part of the mod (At this point the structure itself is a small part with all the stuff ive added), the trial chamber
