When delivering scrap, Manticores spread out to use all processors if possible.

This is inspired by another mod Multi Scrap Processor Fix, and I consider this mod to be an alternative of that mod.

More (technical) details in the GitHub readme (see the Mirrors section), but the thinking is that, if it is expensive for Manticores to fail scrap delivery (and to retry), then just make them spread out and use all the scrap processors if possible. This greatly improves scrap processing throughput because most processors will therefore have something to process.

Why Use This Mod but not Multi Scrap Processor Fix?
I admit, I was a user of that mod at first, but then I noticed something about the other mod: the slowest part (aka the bottleneck) of scrap processing is to wait for the Manticores to fly to any scrap processor (in use or not), so retrying quickly did not improve throughput by much; they just spend the gained time flying to another scrap processor, which may be in use, and then maybe they need to fly again. Quite inefficient.
