Integrate Reconfig + several updates

[JadeOfMaar]

Special notice: I've moved and renamed the existing patch configs (KIS, CLS, USI) and I took special care to, as much as possible, respect your original TAC LS patch and to respect its balancing and application to certain Endurance parts. A lot of preference is given to B9 Part Switch, but in the absence thereof, parts will still hold fuel and have some degree of usability.

---

• Added B9 tank support for the major LS mods (USI, TAC, Snacks, Kerbalism).
• Added Experiment Cluster box part.
• Added Infirmary module part for Endurance ring with DeepFreeze support.
• Added improved feature support for these LS mods.
  • Kerbalism:
  • Added comforts.
  • Raised science storage capacities.
  • Raised ignition count and operation time on all engines. By a lot.
  • USI:
  • Added MedBay option to the Infirmary part. May need proof-reading.
  • WBI:
  • 2 low-output OmniConverter slots in Logistics module when WildBlueTools installed.
  • Pathfinder templates.
  • Air! and Stress! modules for Snacks! LS.
• Added probe control point and extreme range, low-bandwith antenna to command module.
• Fixed prior patches: USI LS, KIS.
• Fixed docking ports not being in Coupling category, not having a manufacturer key, but also 2 of them actually being non-functional Structural category items (mount points) but saying that they're docking ports.
• Fixed other parts being in less appropriate categories.
• Hid deployable flag part. It's been broken and unplayable forever.
• Integrated Endurance Reconfig.

Endurance Reconfig (from V1.11, KSP 1.9) feature list:

• Adds a copy of the crew cabin, purposed for integration with DeepFreeze, Kerbal Health and Kerbalism.
• Adds plumes to nearly all engines and RCS thrusters. (Technical issues beyond my grasp.)
• Adds stack symmetry (only for 2x symmetry, very handy) to the structural ring.
• Adds missing built-in antennas and KerbNet modules.
• Fixes heat limits and heat production to be mostly negligible.
• Fixes the Viper/Mini-Ranger to:
  • Have some stack nodes for mounting onto other parts/vessels.
  • Use Kerbal Flying Saucers features if that mod is installed.
• Makes the engines and RCS use only LiquidFuel and ElectricCharge, and raises their Isp and their Electrical demands to practical high levels. These buffs make Endurance much more fit for use in a large kerbal universe, whether an upscaled one or one with many star systems.
  • Makes use of LqdHydrogen instead of LiquidFuel in CRP (when Rational Resources, CryoEngines or Kerbal Atomics are present).
  • Makes use of Propellium instead of LiquidFuel in WBI Classic Stock.
  • LiquidFuel replacement also applies to fuel cells.
• Moves some parts further along in the tech tree (when CTT is present) due to their fusion power natures.
• Replaces the basic, high-powered generator module with convincing fuel cells and Tokamak-alike fusion power sources.
• Changes ElectricCharge tankage and changes tanks to use B9 Part Switch or WBI OmniStorage.
• Integrates parts with WBI Pathfinder and Snacks for a very complete gameplay feature set.
  • Changes habitability assessment experiment into 2x WBT experiments that require time and resources and only fully functions at some worlds.
  • Makes crewed parts configurable in-flight.
  • Provides life support mod integration only for WBI Snacks.

Few things I don't see in the changelog that I wanted to ask about: The MB-25 freight transport module has it's part category changed. The deployable lab has had it's Internalspace model removed and changed to Placeholder. Same goes for the EC-200b command part? The flag part has been hidden/deprecated? Adds science experiments? if a mod is installed WildBlueTools?? Not sure what this multi science box is. cause i don't see it in the changelog. Is this all this WBT and WBI mentioned? in your PR? Not sure I am very keen on adding mod dependencies. But I guess no harm if you don't have it installed. Though I didn't pick up where it doesn't add that part if that mod is not installed.

All these changes need to go into the changelog, and the OP on the forum post will need to be updated too with all these changes and new mod support/dependancies etc.

and I stop there, cause outta time for today. I'm only scratching the surface, it's going to take me several weekends to get through all these changes.

Hey JPL. The changelog is supposed to be fleshed out already, but just in case, I've made a small addition or two to hopefully bring it all to the forefront. See: this commit. I had changed the MB-25's category from Utility to Payload because I typically don't see parts that are purely tanks showing up under Utility, and that it may primarily hold things other than propellant so I didn't put it under FuelTank (where, oddly enough, the stock Ore tanks appear).

I don't recall ever seeing IVA portraits during my testing. Then again, I may or may not have ever put kerbals in the crewed ring modules. If I'm somehow in great error, I can undo this (or it may be better if you do so). I've hidden/deprecated the flag, yes. From my experience, that part has always been broken. It has no collider in its idle state so when I pick it from the part catalog, I can't place it anywhere, and when I drop it, I cannot pick it up. If it is dependent on, say, a USI plugin, then I'll never experience that part in working condition as I don't use USI mods at all. The MB-30 multi science box is an all-new part, primarily just a conglomeration of stock experiments, and everything necessary for a drone vessel to deploy itself, and is a new item for the Lander to carry to planetary surfaces.

The dependencies on WBT, and even B9 Part Switch are all soft. I made sure of it. Even my changes to the default fuel loadouts on the parts are set up as a fallback contained in GameData/Endurance/Patches/FuelNoSwitchers.cfg.
