Description
The premise of this community fix is to introduce a "Select Style" UI interface akin to the one used with cosmetics.

This interface would allow you to customize an equipped unusual effect, such as selecting a color variant, or effect elements.

The intent of this change is to:

1) Reduce bloat. The unboxing system as is means that when you unbox an unusual effect, if that effect has multiple color variants, you only unbox ONE of those variants. This change would compile and condense all variants into one unusual effect that you can choose from.

2) Encourage customization and curation of unusual effects. Particle makers, similar to cosmetic makers, could create different "styles," such as options to remove rays, change out sprites, and more.

This change would apply to unusual effects accepted in the future, rather than retroactively apply a select system to old accepted items.

I plan on releasing some unusual effects with styles, so look out for those!

Let me know your thoughts on this change in the comment section! Whether you agree or disagree, or how this could be further improved upon.
