HeatShield has very different aero to stock #204

A stock heatshield on a mk1 capsule with a bit of extra load on top still re-enters pointing surface-retrograde and is aerodynamically stable like that.

But proceduralHeatshield is not - it easily falls to the side (with infernal consequences).

Looking at the part ,.cfg, I noticed the Squad one has:

    CoPOffset = 0.0, 1.0, 0.0
    CoLOffset = 0.0, -0.15, 0.0

(i.e. it cheats), whereas proceduralHeatshield only appears to cheat with CoPOffset, not CoLOffset.
