Two New .25 Caseless Guns

[VMSolidus]

Description

This PR adds a new integrally suppressed submachine gun to the game, which is called the FPA-90. It is notably the first automatic weapon to fire the .25 caseless ammo type, which it does so in extremely quick 3 round bursts with a moderate cooldown between bursts. This item can be either obtained from the Syndicate Uplink where it's intended primarily for "Stealth Ops" nukies, or it can be manufactured after researching Advanced Weapons in Arsenal T3, for a fairly sizeable amount of aluminium and steel.

Since Security could not previously print .25 caseless, this PR also adds the ability to print caseless rifle magazines. Also included for the uplink are a variety of magazines for the FPA-90(and other weapons).

For the crew side of things, there is also the bullpup caseless integrally supressed assault rifle, called the BRDI-R25. Unlike the FPA-90, it requires wielding to be used effectively. It's currently obtained via Prototype Weapons in arsenal t3, and then manufactured at a security techfab. The BRDI has two radically different firing modes, a 5 round burst with extreme rate of fire and poor accuracy, and an auto mode that has much lower firing rate and more manageable recoil. Essentially, we have a "Fuller-Auto" gun.

There is also a unique antique BRDI-R25 available to the Head of Security via his special weapon loadout picks.

BRDI-AR25.mp4

Thanks to Meijunkie, I've added a 2nd new gun that also uses .25 Caseless Rifle. This one is called the BRDI-R25. It's stats and availability are quite different from the FPA-90, given that it's not a shitbox at all. Unlike the FPA-90, it requires wielding to be accurate. It shares the same extremely ROF burst mode, which can prove uncontrollable if the user doesn't pace themselves. For more accurate fire, it can be toggled to fire in semi or full-auto, and in both modes it has a significantly lower, much more controllable rate of fire.

I got incredibly annoyed with "Gun Examine" not actually giving information about the BRDI's unique stats, so I fixed that myself.

Holy shit, actual useful info

I got tired of people asking me "Why does it not sound like a normal gun?"
