Automatic changelog update

* Added in -
UCR (unstable core refractor) a hard to obtain crew side maybe heavy laser gun which has very low capacity high dps and slows you down a shit ton along side that it cant aim for shit and only does radiation damage which is countered by rad suit and thermal suit for syndis. its fully sprited even for its back and suitstorage sprites...
Added in -
Specialized weapon parts which holds two new parts to create the UCR being the Unstable reactor core and the Unstable Reactor Housing which will later combine to make the weapon when i figure that out
changed -
loot tables to include in legendary the unstable reactor core

* added everything else
 fixed up inhand sprites for the core, and gave it some more omph interms of radiation because i hate salv
 now its craftable in the crafting menu when you get the housing and the core and you just have both of em and put it together decently not fast
 yeah crafting systems suck i had to make like 3 new stuffs and add to like 2 already existing thingys...
 also i forgot to add reactor core to legdary loot table, now its in
 also its in the sec fab now and blacklisted from portable recharger not like it would do you any good but it would negate the speed downisde which is a big part of it

* small final fixes
fixed unstable reactor core spawning in sets of 3 to 5 now it only spawns 1 (its still really fuckin rare)

changed unstable core refractor's sprite thingy to fit in with the rest of them in terms of naming convention

changed icon and base sprites so they were more shaded and look less odd

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* hot fix :)
changed graph name to UnstableCoreRefractor

* Fixing single word

added word core in between the UnstableReactor in the Unstable Reactor Housing item thingy

Signed-off-by: Apersos-coll <collsherlo@gmail.com>

* reworks the thingy
reverse bloom on the gun allows it to be both "unstable" and useable
some other stuff which are just fixes

* made core buyable
made core less radioactive
stat changes for gun so it focusses fire faster and has a bit faster generation

* Made Unstable Beam projectiles have unique textures i made :)
buffed projectiles to 6 damage a hit instead of 5 cause radiation damage is so weak, now its more viable in actual combat :)

* recharge buff cause its so slow

* [pre-commit.ci] auto fixes from pre-commit.com hooks

for more information, see https://pre-commit.ci

* fixed it, the crate i had to fix while updating it i missplaced the y and the p in type...
