Animation import borked with Blender 4.4 update

Armature and keyframes will import but the keyframes are empty and don't deform the model at all.

Not sure about Python or Git? Download the code[github.com] and copy the io_scene_valvesource folder to %appdata%\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.4\scripts\addons.

Can confirm, tried to import some viewmodel animations on 4.4 but keyframes don't seem to be importing at all. Version 4.3 is still able to import animations though.

The data is imported, but there is a breaking API change which leaves the object unanimated. The missing step can be performed manually by choosing the "Legacy Slot" at this point in the Blender UI.

Seems to work just fine, at least in my use case.
