Cover Snipe Re-animation w/ FFADC (RobZ)

This is a small animation tweak mod that re-used vanilla animations assets to effectively make infantry soldiers reduce time reacting to hostile contact in the direction of the chest-level cover they use (Referred to as snipe_cover in Editor or cover_from_snipe_gun in animation files.) by switching stances instead of conducting a 180° turn, most of which the time-lapse of the animation often result in one's death in the heat of intense gunfight.

Please check the Cover Mod Collection if you want to see which one has dedicated Cover patch

Just imagine this, instead of facing away and losing track of the enemy while in cover, you can just simply kneel down and peek to keep an eye on enemy movement, and just stand up to engage, demonstrated by the guy on the left.

==PROS==
1. Effectively reduces time to return fire in front of the cover by switching stances instead of turning around, AND killing that occasional bug where their aim is pointed upwards.
2. The entities behave in the same way they do for vanilla animations, they take cover when reloading, and keep low when under the heavy suppression or under the threat of insurmountable odds.
3. For convenience, they now hold back weapons when in cover, this is a result of a simple animation re-naming.

==♥♥♥♥==
1. Since they only kneel in front of the cover, the time to react against flanking opponents from the rear increases by about 5% as they need to manually turn around. (Testing concluded they still do as fine engaging enemies behind, but situational results may vary.)

- This version was specifically made for RobZ Realism mod as the latter contains two animations that was included into the human_anm.ext, it should work with many RobZ based mod/addon as long as they don't modify the file
human_anm.ext.

Q: WHY ARE THESE VIDEOS? NO PICS, NO CLICKS, NO SUB, SCRUB.
A: Yeah, uh... pictures alone cannot really demonstrate how it works.

Q: Compatibility patch for this *Modification* because some animations from the mod vanished in the Editor.
A1: Roger that, let me know and I'll see what I can do about it, it is a conflict of human_anm.ext file.
