Let us put entire stacks into workstations

Slippery slope time; let us put entire stacks into workstations. It would simply make stacks easier to use and more intuitive. "Why can't I shift-click this stack of X into [Workstation]?!" No longer.

Stacks have been great generally, but annoying af when you need to destack them before putting them into a furnace/herbalist table/drying frame/ur mum. And I'm not about to ask to remove stacks!

So let us go through every workstation, and consider every fucking option, to make sure!

drying frame
Every village and player already spams stupid amounts of drying frames, I see no problem with allowing 4x of a hide to be dried simultaneously on a frame. Same with any of the curios or WWW. Quality of the frame doesn't matter.

tanning tub
Same as the drying frame, although quality matters more here, but tanning fluid is proportionally consumed so who cares!

cauldron
Considering quality here, the big ones are lye and heartshorn, who cares if you do them in 1 cauldron or 4.

oven
I'm only including the oven in this list because the damn thing NEEDS a boost in inventory somehow anyway.

herbalist table
Trees are irrelevant because they don't stack, seeds are who cares, silkworm egg q who cares. A lot of these seem to be a problem with the tiny inventory spaces of the workstation.

smelters
All the smithing stations have always suffered from "we need a ton of these" syndrome, and I don't really see a problem with putting stacks of ore into a smelter, balance-wise. Might be annoying to collect quicksilver out of a stack of slag, but quicksilver is all about suffering anyway.

(Also bars of metal should stack, and just extrapolate these arguments to the finery forge and crucible)

Again, the goal is to make stacks easier and more intuitive to use, and allowing us to just slap them into current workstations seems like a natural progression for this.
