Dutch UU Fix + Icon Fix

Description
Simple mod that fixes some outstanding issues with the game that are simple 1 line fixes. Fixes the Dutch naval UU's the Cruiser and Merchant icon and the Riflemen textstrings.

The Cruiser for years accidentally was set to use the destroyer icon instead due to a developer error by being off a number in the code.A simple numerical adjustment and now the cruiser uses the intended icon. This same issue is also effecting the Merchant as well. The caravan unit has 3 different era icon/models, so does the merchant. However the mid game version of the merchant has the same exact issue as the cruiser in that the developers have the number for the correct icon off by 1.

Riflemen in the game tool tips are classified as a gunpowder unit, except they are classed in the game files as a modern infantry. Perhaps a really early game build or beta build change to the game but never fixed the tool tip? Well now its fixed to display it as modern infantry instead of gunpowder. This fix also encompasses the Black Watch, US Marines and the Manchu Riflemen whom also have the incorrect text string on their unit class.

The Dutch UU fix is another developer error for the 3 dutch ship classes. Due to how they setup the fireing animations for the UU's they end up actually firing way slower then they actually should be. Cause of this issue they would straight up be 66% weaker then their non-UU counter part! This fix adjust's all the UU to use the Sloop's firing profile, while it may look off with the animation, they will perform how they were originally intended which is a stronger and tougher light ship.

Hiya, while doing my own fix for the Dutch UUs I stumbled on your mod and used your info on the non-Dutch stuff to bundle those along with a couple of other fixes into another mod: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2218254050

Really appreciate that you took the time to fix the little things like this!
