[Code Sugguestion] Improve hitbox for ancient spear

When you attack with an ancient spear, it will launchs a collider simulated as hitbox for damaging opponent and the collider will be removed after 0.21s.
But I noticed some problems:

The collider will be heavily affected by gravity, the stab distance will be very different when hitting up or down, not only that, the collider's hitbox will be separated from the actual spear blade position after about 0.1s.
In multiplayer, the client can't immediately receives a network event (such as removing the collider) from the server. So it always makes the collider "fly a little longer" in client side and caused asynchronous attack.

I have fixed them here: OTFX

How?

we just need to deactive the collider after 3 ticks:
add DeactivationTime="0.067" to projectile
and adjust physical body a little bit

In addition, I used Propulsion to simulate attack animations to enhance the sense of hit and it makes the attacking action look more natural.
