Cadet Branch Difficulty Game Rules

Adds two game rules to change the difficulty of creating a cadet branch:

Create Cadet Branch Difficulty
Normal: Creating a cadet branch is unchanged.
Harder: Creating a cadet branch is harder, with the extra requirements:

• You are an Emperor, King or independent Duke
• Your Level of Fame is Illustrious or above

Significantly Harder: Creating a cadet branch is significantly harder, with the extra requirements:

• You are an Emperor or independent King
• Your Level of Fame is Exalted among Men or above

Create Cadet Branch with Hook
No: The Level of Prestige requirement for creating a cadet branch is unchanged.
Yes: You can circumvent the Level of Fame requirement of creating a cadet branch with an available hook on your house head. (On Create Cadet Branch Difficulty Normal this has no effect and on Significantly Harder it requires a strong hook)

These changes also apply to the AI, resulting in fewer houses but every house is more notable.

Note: cadet branches can still be created by the game mechanic that when a house head demands a house member to convert and they refuse, a new branch is automatically created.

Tired of seeing your legendary dynasty shatter into hundreds of small houses headed by nobodies? This mod makes every aspiring new house head have to earn his right to found a new cadet branch, either by being a legendary king, or possibly by blackmailing the current house head...
