Tables, desks, lockers and other hand-made furniture now work like real furniture

About 1,700 tables, desks, counters, benches, workbenches, lockers, crates, supply packs and loose ore and scrap had been built on a bare thing, so they had no surface, seats, room sentence or size. They now use proper generics and keep their own names, descriptions and contents: you can put things on a table, sit on a bench, and open a locker or crate. Tables and desks that hold things inside them are unchanged.
Builders can make new ones with @create $table, $desk, $counter, $bench, $chair, $crate or $sealed_pack; each comes with a description, size, room text and material. Mining, salvage, taking stock and workbench offcuts now give you iron ore or loose material with the right mass instead of a bare object.
Fixed: a key you are carrying now opens a container locked with it, and push trashcan presses the trashcan's button instead of trying to shove it.
