Escape Teleport

This makes it so that if the ship you are in is destroyed, but you have a ship in range of your current teleport research, you will be instantly teleported there instead of receiving a Game Over screen. Now you can play a smaller ship in a big battle without worry of a random missile making you load a savegame. You must be on a ship for it to activate but you don't have to be the pilot. It should handle any kill method that involves receiving hull damage, including the hazard zones, but it won't trigger if your ship gets instant killed by script, such as in the PHQ mission.

There are currently no visual effects when the teleport happens, you're just suddenly on a different ship. I couldn't get the effects system to do anything useful, but if someone wants to try to help with that, let me know.
