Perceived performance: performance to animation speed modifier

some of the new space age assembling machines have a performance_to_activity_rate of 2, but it seems the property is only read for generators.

so either the documentation needs to be updated that "that" only works for generators and the rate of 2 removed from all assembling machine prototypes in the official mods, or assembling machines should support the performance_to_activity_rate properly.

posila mentioned @ https://discord.com/channels/1396775903 ... 3410575370 that its basically just for audio,
its placement & usage in between the minimum & maximum animation speeds of assembling machines highly suggest it controls how quickly (or slowly) the maximum cap is actually red, a misconception luka had too @ https://discord.com/channels/1396775903 ... 4700250194, also the struct where performance_to_activity_rate also resides in is litterally labeled "affects animation speed"

so if this really is "not a bug" move it to modding interface requests? since it would be really nice if you could control how many speed modules/beacons are needed to reach the maximum animation speed. (and if not there, documentation improvement requests, since it is currently really hard to figure it out based on context)

I'll fix/update the doc so it's clear(er).

Edit: and remove performance_to_activity_rate from crafting machines where it does nothing

The docs have been updated and some of the lua definitions cleaned up for the next release, 2.0.31.

I'm moving this to Modding interface requests, for a performance to animation speed modifier.
