NETSCRIPT: Add ramOverride() function ()
This adds a way to dynamically change the static RAM limit of a script,
which is also its current RAM usage. This makes it possible for scripts
to dynamically change their memory footprint, opening up new strategies
beyond current ram-dodging.

Calling functions still permanently increases the *dynamic* memory
limit; RAM-dodging is still the optimal strategy for avoiding RAM costs,
in that sense.

This also adds dynamicRamUsage to the info returned by
`getRunningScript`, to allow introspection on the currently needed ram.

## RunningScript.dynamicRamUsage property
The dynamic RAM usage of (one thread of) this script instance. Does not affect overall RAM consumption (ramUsage is for that), but rather shows how much of the reserved RAM is currently in use via all the ns functions the script has called. Initially 1.6GB, this increases as new functions are called.
Only set for scripts that are still running.
**Signature:**
```typescript
dynamicRamUsage: number | undefined;
```
