Making Depth Markers (gauge) more useful: let us name Markers, and give them alert - alarm feature

So depth markers require some science investment and resources, but at the moment doesn't tell us much more than we can already guess by eye.

My proposed change is to firstly let us name depth markers; "main dam", "reservoir", "source" etc. and be able to cycle through them.

Secondly, add a feature to the Depth Marker that gives you a ping/alarm if it reaches above or below a certain depth; use the slider from the floodgates to change the trigger depth from 0 to 'never', and a check box or switch for 'above' or 'below'.

I think you can achieve most if not all this through existing game mechanics or re-using existing code from elsewhere in the game (floodgate has slider, check boxes and switches already exist in the UI, and you already have a notification system for pings and alarms).

Thanks for such a fun game so far, hope to see more from you all :)
