The centrifuge, currently only existing in an MV variety, is a machine
that separates a mixed substance into its constituents. Currently the
main use is to reverse alloying of metals. The alloy separation recipes
intentionally only operate on the dust form of metals, making this less
convenient than the original alloying. It also only recovers metal
constituents, not the carbon that went into cast iron or carbon steel.
This change incidentally generalises the technic recipe and
machine infrastructure to handle recipes with multiple outputs.
As unified_inventory's craft guide can't yet handle that, these recipes
are not registered there.
A typo in commit d55ecc39f9 made recipes
for alloy cooking, compressing, and all other craft types sharing that
machine code, to be shown with three ingredient slots instead of the
correct one or two.
