Mission 02: CRATE DIGGERS — timed raid with no base building

Strike force + The Selector against a Stream transcoder outpost; 6-minute
countdown shown via SetMissionText, master lacquer is cut (killed) if the timer
beats you. Adds the lacquer prop (deliberately untargetable) and ScriptTriggers
on all actor templates, without which Trigger.OnKilled throws at map load.
