Cherry Pick: Mono (#4017) Drone Loot & Contraband Adjustment

[Wuffindy]

About the PR

cherry picked Monolith-Station/Monolith#4017 from mono that changes Contraband alongside Drone loot which is followed up with some adjustment so that it fits the server's ship saving balance

Why / Balance

this has been a long waited adjustment, Mono's reward was way too abundant and does not work on Triad's economy due to ship saving, the PR helps with the current Smuggling Contraband & alongside the overrewarding issue from drone hunting

I am actually curious what the design philsophy is here because I am in the process of trying to balance gas mining as well. What I would love to know is how much research/money should a player get for spending 1 hour drone hunting.

Something I do find strange is the t2-2 reward having an antique cell at 0.1% which means you would need 333 quake or mauler kills to get one cell if I see the math correctly here.

These are rough drafts I'm just putting together first, initially so that it's there for reminder, which I'll refine in time after my mind is clear

cant give you an estimate yet like what i say above, but the thought of after an hour of hunting does help determine how it'll be refined later

The antique is just there as a "bonus" item if you happen to get it from fighting one, but you can live without it. or get it from other source. but then again these are all not final till it's more fleshed out thought
