Glitched black particle fix for M1 Mac/Intel GPU/etc.

Description
If you meet strange black circle(particle) on the fire/zombie/molotov/etc. , this add-on can help you to improve experience. Works on L4D2 inside VMware Fusion on M1 Apple Mac device.

This add-on is based on the work of jeffery ( https://github.com/l4d ), I add some modification based on the visible glitches in my gameplay. Glitch sample picture can be seen from the pictures above and original add-on post ( https://www.gamemaps.com/details/16609 ). My screenshots' resolution may be too low.

If you DIDN'T meet this glitch before, PLEASE DON'T USE THIS.

Update 2024/1/24:
After some researching, I can confirm the reason of the black particle problem is glitched modulate shader on some graphic driver, with the "$mod2x 1" config. So, I choose a new fixing method: make the corresponding vmt not rendering. It's more effective than previous method (modifying particle system file). Maybe it can eliminate more glitched particle in game.

Update 2024/1/21:
Rework on L4D2's particle system file intead of original add-on's L4D1 file to avoid bad effect on burning zombie.
Fix broken gas station fire after explosion in No Mercy because of the original add-on's file.
