> <!-- The text between the arrows are comments - they will not be

> 
> ## About the PR
> <!-- What did you change in this PR? -->
> 
> This PR removes the Trash tag for Syndicate implanters, stopping them
from being recycled. This means they can no longer be destroyed with the
station's Recycler/Material Reclaimer. Non-Syndicate implanters can
still be recycled as normal.
> 
> ## Why / Balance
> <!-- Why was it changed? Link any discussions or issues here. Please
discuss how this would affect game balance. -->
> 
> Being able to recycle implanters completely trivializes the disposal
of evidence; if a Material Reclaimer is mapped on the station, it's
literally a single button click to fully remove any signs of a
contraband having been used, and a Recycler isn't much harder to get
going.
> 
> We already have other systems in the game to hide and alter evidence,
such as soap (cleans fingerprints/DNA), stashing in plants, using a
storage implant, throwing out of an airlock or just hiding it in a
remote place in maintenance. All those methods have some sort of
downside or counterplay the antag needs to consider and work around.
However, since the recycling is simple, non-suspicious, easily
accessible and leaves no trace there is no point in engaging with those
other systems as the recycling is always the optimal choice.
> 
> This change is only limited to Syndicate implanters. Non-Syndicate
implanters (e.g. bike horn) can be acquired in much larger qualities and
thus serve a need to be properly disposed of, in additional to being
visually distinct.
> 
> ## Technical details
> <!-- If this is a code change, summarize at high level how your new
code works. This makes it easier to review. -->
> 
> The base implanter prototype has only the Trash tag, so for the base
Syndicate implanter the .yaml just sets its tags to blank.
> 
> ## Media
> <!-- 
> PRs which make ingame changes (adding clothing, items, new features,
etc) are required to have media attached that showcase the changes.
> Small fixes/refactors are exempt.
> Any media may be used in SS14 progress reports, with clear credit
given.

> If you're unsure whether your PR will require media, ask a maintainer.

class/method/field changes, prototype renames; and provide instructions
for fixing them. This will be pasted in #codebase-changes.
