Spoiled Weighted Average - Au Naturel Edit

The spoiled mod adds a spoilage mechanism to food over time.

This mod does the same thing but adds/fixes a mechanic for when you can merge items together.

Because spoiling food is treated as unique items, the spoiled mod allows for an option to generate recipes to merge items together as they cannot otherwise be stacked. however in doing so, it takes a simple average of the spoilage amount applying to both item stacks when calculating the spoilage amount of the resulting output.

In the original mod, combining a single apple with spoilage amount 0% with a stack of 63 apples with 99% spoilage would result in a stack of 64 apples with ~50% spoilage, half way between the spoilage of the original two inputs. This allows one to effectively nullify the spoilage mechanic by adding single fresh items to larger stacks iteratively or over time.

This fix adjusts the underlying logic to use a weighted average formula for spoilage when combining items. Thus in our previous example, the fresh apple will constitute 1/64th of the weight of the resulting output spoilage, and the 63 apples will constitute 63/64ths of the resulting spoilage.

This allows for the intuitive combining of items of different spoilage amounts, and reasonable benefits to doing so, without allowing for the possiblity of ignoring the spoilage mechanic entirely.
