Item subtype tokens

Most item types have no subtypes. "NONE" or "NO_SUBTYPE" (the raws use NO_SUBTYPE, saving an embark profile uses NONE) is used for the subtype position for these. For items that do have subtypes, the subtypes are defined from the raws for that item type as noted above.

Material tokens

The material tokens have been moved to the new Material tokens page.
