The Reprocessing Plant held at most one cycle's output, so a single item
anywhere in the building -- buffer or still emerging -- stopped the next cycle.
That cap existed only to deny a reroll: with room for one item, stalling the
output belt could not make the plant discard a roll and try again.
Replace it with the general rule. Every item a recipe can produce gets its own
buffer of twice its per-cycle amount, mirroring the input side, and a cycle
starts only when every output it could produce fits. For a deterministic recipe
that is just its own outputs, so nothing changes there. For the plant it means
all possible rolls must fit, which denies the reroll as before -- a full buffer
for one item stops the plant entirely rather than letting it go on producing
only the others -- while allowing an output amount above one.
Also pins what "the next buffered item" means at the output port now that one
queue no longer implies it: items leave in production order whatever their
type. Status light and output chip wording follow, since a buffer short of a
full cycle's worth blocks exactly as a full one does.
Requirements only; the implementation follows.

The debris panel's stat row spelled out "Scrap remaining". It now reads
"Remaining" with the amount followed by the bare scrap icon -- the same
inline form the header bar uses for building blocks -- and falls back to
the old caption when no scrap icon file exists. The count summary's
indented sub-row states its sum the same way.
REQ-UI-ITEM-ICON named the bare inline icon as a building_block special
case; it now states the general rule (an icon standing in for the item's
name beside a number is drawn without its square) and keeps the boundary
explicit: a value shown as an item still takes the square.
