photon_controller entity susceptible to Garry's Mod's major NW2 issues #15

The photon_controller entity utilizes the NW2Vars system, which has a known, major reliability flaw Garry's Mod issue #5455. Community testing has revealed that the photon_controller does indeed suffer from this.

As it's unlikely the underlying Garry's Mod issue will ever be fixed, the networking approach needs to be adjusted for Photon 2 to work reliably in multiplayer.

NW2 data is now handled by the controller's parent. Multiplayer testing has confirmed no issues with this.
