OBO: Autoshotgun Rebalance script

OBO, pronounced "oboe" (yes, like the instrument), stands for "Overall Balance Overhaul."

This is a script that rebalances the Auto Shotgun to fit alongside my other OBO guns and making a slew of little tweaks. The biggest change you'll notice immediately is the slightly tighter spread, but I've added cosmetics like vertical recoil and crosshair spread for gun feel.

Total pellets fired have been slightly reduced while damage per pellet has been slightly buffed (total damage per shot stays the same), to alleviate how Commons would occasionally be gibbed heavily by a shot and still survive, particularly on Expert. Now it should be slightly easier to visually tell when a Common is dead.

I feel that VALVe did a good job with this gun's balance already, so I basically just optimised the user experience. Specific changes are listed below for your convenience.
