The Great Talent Merger of 1.0

This mod is a complete merging of the old and new talent trees from the original talents, and the talents at the 1.0 release.

Every class received a full rework of what's in each of their trees and general talents, to lesser or greater degrees, depending on the class. I've tried to keep all talents and buffs from both old and new talent trees available in some form or another, while also consolidating trees into more cohesive identities that some of them lacked.

Anything that didn't fit in talent trees was added to general talents, as well as some of the useful parts of talent trees that I considered underperformers or useless. These trees are still available in addition to the reworked and merged talent trees if you want to use them while using this talent mod.

New advanced tools in engi & mech talents. Compatible with neurotrauma & NT cybernetics. Place above cybernetics in mod load for the right recipe for some items, but still works when placed below.

I ran out of room in the description, so I had to put the engineer & medic changes in the change notes.
The full list of changes is also in this google doc[docs.google.com]

Consolidated the good parts of the old and new trees together and made sure everything seemed useful.
