[6.0 Beta 7] Prisoners on donated SCA ships inconsistencies

Save

The ship '! HasPrisoner - Minotaur Raider (HIJ-450)' had its captain re-assigned and now only contains a prisoner.

inconsistencies:
- The Minotaur doesn't have a brig (that we can visit)
- The prisoner can't be freed/promoted through the crew screen (right-click on ship -> Information -> Crew)
- However it is possible to comm the prisoner and tell them to "work somewhere else for me" or fire them
- The Phoenix Sentinel (HMF-440) also has a prisoner and a brig, however the brig is empty (same for MFS-927 and MRX-368)

Preferred solution:
Give the player the option to free or hire the prisoner before they can be given orders. When freed, the prisoner exits the ship through an escape pod, with maybe some positive rep gain.
Only have prisoners on ships with a brig, and put the prisoner in there, allowing the player to interact with them.
Further fleshing out the prisoner system with the ability to ransom or execute the prisoner for credits and/or rep loss would be nice too. Though I appreciate that dev time is limited and there's an expansion around the corner. :mrgreen:
