Test Only - VScript files are 0 bytes

Description
NOTE: SERIOUSLY, DO NOT SUBSCRIBE TO THIS THING.

All of Valve's VScript files are empty. Forces insta-finales and other anomalies.

More info on the insta-finale bug can be found here. It's a bug that very rarely and exclusively occurs on Valve Official Dedicated, for reasons that aren't clear to the community or Valve, but it's assumed that VScript files fail to load entirely which causes escape vehicles to instantly arrive. L4D1 used standard trigger_finale settings instead of VScript, so this only started happening with L4D2. Insta-finales can be "predicted" if maps before it failed to load the new Versus TLS ladders. It can also be experienced when VScript Gauntlets produce zero Common spawns, or Mutations abruptly stop working prompting a return to lobby to fix them.

This addon empties 313 *.nut VScript files so they're all 0 bytes, to force those bugs 100% of the time. Ultra-rare scenarios to look out for are instances where some maps like Passing 1 may produce multiple Witch spawns, or maps other than Passing 1 mysteriously spawn the Bride Witch.

Consider any results to be anecdotal non-sense... this is just for fun.
