Red Eyed Skaven 2.0 Reskin

This mod reskins Skaven troops (where applicable) to have luminescent red eyes.

The biggest change over the WH2 version of this mod is that these red eyes are truly glowing, they pop especially in dark maps. There is also an unintentional 'bloom' effect that occurs in part because of the varying eye models across the Skaven, so for some units under the right lighting you can get a really neat Vermintide 2 vibe going on with their eyes.

Any Skaven RoRs that already had differently colored eyes I have not altered, the same with weapon teams wearing goggles and Ikit Claw. There are numerous Skaven variants with dead eyes or metal replacements, these too have also not been altered.

CHANGES (other than glowing red eyes):
-Stormvermin no longer have oxidized/rusted out armor. I never liked this visual touch for a Skaven caste that has first dibs on the best armor.

-Throt has correct porthole/unit card eye color now.

-Deathmaster Snikch already had glowing eyes, I enhanced the redness on them so they look more like they do on his unit card.

-Red dot texture glitch removed from Hellpit Abomination.

-All Eshin Sorcerers are either blind or have warpstones jammed in their eyes, it was too much hassle getting the few variants that had a functioning eye to glow.

-All Gutter Runners have red eyes, Night Runners and Death Runners have quite a few single blind eye variants among them reflecting their greater experience and survived injuries.

-At the moment, no team colors on the head parts for Skaven Slaves and Clan Rats. I have given them drab brown colors by the moment so they're not a bunch of white hooded rats. Will fix in the future when I have more time.

-Skaven Chieftain in Custom Battle was switched out for a Chieftain variant that has visible eyes (and cooler head gear IMO)

-Only one Plague Priest hero variant has glowing red eyes, the other is blind and the other has rotting eyes.
-----------

This mod should also be a lot more compatible with other Skaven graphic overhauls than the previous WH2 version, as it touches very few textures or variant definitions.
