Vanilla Plus Rebalance

This mod aims to improve the mechanics and realism of Motorsport Manager, to the extent that one can without DLL changes.

- Top speeds have been slashed to more believable levels; WMC cars will have trouble reaching 370km/h at first. Acceleration, braking and especially corner speeds have been boosted a lot to compensate, but lap times will nonetheless be slower than vanilla. Also, cars in lower championships are more noticeably slower than their tier 1 counterparts in each series.

- Whilst it's still the most important part governing speed, engines no longer give a disproportionate benefit compared to money and resources spent, whilst handling-based parts are a lot more important in this mod. Car performance has a more noticeable effect in GT series compared to vanilla, where the scalars in GT series were suppressed.

- Supplier costs when building a new chassis have been changed, to provide a more linear benefit between money spent and chassis quality. Hammer and Shimizu are now stronger engine suppliers to better reflect the lore of them being champions in GT and Endurance. Minor fixes have also been made to ensure that suppliers are giving discounts to the teams they're actually supposed to be.

- Part/HQ costs, along with build times, have been revised to better match relative benefits. The Design Centre for example is cheaper, since it offers little benefit beyond unlocking more buildings. Also, the Road Car Factory and Theme Park have been halved in revenue generated. This is to prevent teams that own one or both from trivialising financial management. In return, they only cost half as much to build (less than half in the case of the Theme Park).

- Various changes to the DesignData files result in more consistent game behaviour and fewer bugs, regardless of race length or series. ERS has been changed to drain slower, but provide more realistic and subdued benefits. Wet tracks will now see lap times drop off a lot more. There's no more tyre cliff, but tyre degradation past 50% is a lot heavier, and an attempt has been made to make harder tyres more useful in endurance series especially.

- The WMC rulebook follows that of modern F1 more closely, with three stage qualifying, ERS (power mode only), and a race length equivalent to Grand Prix distance. I also decided to make the initial points system in APSC and IGTC top 8, and limit the ability to turn WMC, IGTC and IEC-A into full spec series. Random grids and points for top 5 have been removed entirely as I find both rules to be quite silly (and random grids can crash the game if voted in).

Additional thanks to Lonewolf and Pyrasaurus for helping me make sure the new files don't crash the game.
