[GZG] RE: [FT] Repair ships

Repairing Hull and Armour is the perview of proper yard facilities and
takes
longer than the Damage Control timescale allows.
Part of the reason for this is the FTJava campaign that's about to test.
With an acceptable mechanic in place, I can try coding it so the file
doesn't need hacking next time one is run. 

Taking Oerjan's comment on board as well:

Field Repair Facility
Mass: 10
Cost: 50 CPV
Spare Parts Cargo: 1 mass/5 NPV
Target must meet criteria for a Boarding Action (see MT) in order to
undertake repairs.  Each turn, it can attempt to repair ONE system.  If
damaged, it is repaired on a roll of 4+, if destroyed (using optional
rules)
it is restored to damaged status on a roll of 6+ and can then be further
repaired.  Each repair attempt consumes 1 Mass of cargo.
