Quality ingredients should boost fluid production.

TL;DR
Currently when you use quality ingredients for fluid recipes they have the same output.
But fluids don't have quality, so instead boost productivity depending on quality input.

What?
Add a in-build productivity boost to fluid recipes with quality ingredients.
I don't know, so Legendary lands on 200% or so. Needs testing.
This can either be done via the a scaled recipe or the productivity bonus.
Why?
It feels wasteful to use quality products in fluids, this should remediate the feeling.
This also adds the quality mechanic benefits to fluids indirectly.
