Original Body

About the PR

Adds some systems to manage chat censorship:

1. No-op: does nothing
2. SimpleCensor: a regex-free censor with a variety of rules to use
3. RegexCensor: a censor that uses regex.

This exposes a singleton backed by a builder pattern (ChatCensor) that is set up, probably during the code init phase, and then globally available for your censorship needs.

Why / Balance

Partial fulfilment of #17313

Technical details

CE wants regex, CE gets regex

Otherwise SimpleCensor is designed to be usable by people who don't want to faff with regex.

This would be setup during server or client init, so would be driven by Cvars.
