Description
Adds fake tree sway to foliage such as trees and shrubs using a material proxy method.

Meaning they will appear to move as if windy.

Textures changed so far are:
Base Hl2:
ivy01.vmt
tree_deciduous_01a_branches.vmt
tree_deciduous_01a_branches.vtf (Higher quality texture replacement from Dark Interval mod)
tree_deciduous_01a_leaves.vmt
tree_pine_01_branches.vmt
tree_pine_02_branches.vmt

EP2:
hedge_128.vmt
hedgesnow_128.vmt (not used in ep2 afaik, but some mods use it)
fern01.vmt
ferns01.vmt
rocks_vegetation.vmt
arbre01.vmt
arbre01_b.vmt
bush.vmt
vines.vmt
antlion_web01a.vmt
forest_web01.vmt
forest_web02.vmt
forest_web03.vmt

Notes:
This effect is quite subtle.
Some swaying textures will appear stretched.
EP2 trees share a trunk/leaves texture and thus the entire texture moves, there is no fix for this.
Supersampling might help the graininess of the alpha.
Misato is best girl.

I added the ep2 trees, note they are way more jank than hl2 base trees in that share a trunk texture with the branches, so the entire texture warps. as such, I halved the speed to make it less noticeable
