Create offline card mechanism about thorium HOT 2 CLOSED

One option would be to have a generic overlay card that can be applied. Essentially, you would set the station's overlay card to "offline" and that would trigger the desired effect. To set blackout, you would do the same. To set "destroyed" or "contaminated" or whatever would be the same. Refs #13.

One downside to this approach is if you go from normal to offline to blackout and want to go back, you can't exactly "pop" the layout. That state would somehow need to be understood somewhere.

Actually, this raises an interesting option: what if blackout and offline etc. were technically layouts, and you have a layout "stack" for each station. You push a layout on the station to switch to a new one, and you pop a layout to go back. This gives you flexible layout manipulation, and reversability.
