Allow the use of "research-progress" type product with multple science packs.

Hi,
I experimented with the new "research-progress" product type. I have an idea that would be made much easier if it worked with multiple of these product to allow research with multiple different science packs to be done.
To give a bit of context, I'd like to make some intermediate packs on planets where some primitive research could be done, but later, the "primitive lab" could instead craft a final planet science pack that would be sent to the planet with all other packs without needing to manage all the intermediates. Maybe there is a better way to do this already in the API that I don't know, but I think it's an interesting design space.
Also, I don't know if I should make another post, but hovering hover an assembler with only a "research-progress" result crashes the game. I attached the small mod I made to test this with the log file.
