[WotC] Amalgamation Pexm Bridge

Amalgamation already has settings for Psionics Ex Machina, so why is this mod a thing? The existing settings allow any amalgamation soldier to equip a psi amp and/or PsiOperative armor, but PExM also includes a system where non-psionic soldiers lose will when using psionic abilities. The primary use of this mod is to flag certain specializations -- set in the config -- as psionic, so that their will doesn't drain while using psionic abilities. It also enables those psionic specs to use psionic weapons and armor from several other mods and enables Psi Operative photobooth poses for them.

All settings are found in this mod's XComAmalgamation.ini

• General Settings From Amalgamation
  The settings to allow all Amalgamation classes to enable psi amps and psiops armor are duplicated here. Having them on in either mod (or both) will make them enabled.
  
  
• The "Psion Fortress" Ability
  The "Psion Fortress" ability, which prevents will loss from psionic abilities, is on for psionic specs by default. It normally only shows up in tactical, but there is also a setting to add it to all psionic soldiers in the strategy layer (see the screenshot above). However, that option does make the ability permanent* on existing soldiers, so it's disabled by default.
  
  *The ability can be removed by disabling the option and then rebuilding the affected soldier(s) (see ApplyClass/RandomizeClass from Amalgamation Console Helper or RebuildSelectedSoldiersClass from Additional Soldier Console Commands). Be aware that these reset the entire build, including rerolling the available ability choices.
  
  
• Psi Operative Photobooth Poses
  By default, psi specs have the Psi Operative photobooth poses from the base game enabled for them. They will need to have a psi amp equipped to see the options though.

• Weapons and armor
  Weapons and/or armor can be enabled for all psionic specs. There are settings, disabled by default, to enable psi amps or armor for psi specs (usually if the settings to add them to all amalgamation specs is off). Settings are also included to enable psionic weapons/armor from other mods. It should be a pretty comprehensive list already, but others can be added if needed.
  
  
• Primary Psi Weapons
  Primary weapons are limited by the weapons normally enabled by the primary specilization. For example: the Psionic Reaper from the ADVENT Warlock mod is set to be usable by rifle or bullpup users, so Infantry - Psion - <any> classes can use it (since Infantry uses rifles), but Assault - Psion - <any> classes cannot (since Assault uses shotguns). Aside from flavor reasons, this prevents issues with classes that use non-standard weapons, like the Undead Lord.
  
  
• Psi Amps
  Similar to the primary weapons, the standard Psi Amps can be disabled for certain specs. This is especially helpful for a few specs that have abilities relying on having custom Psi Amp replacements, like the Biotic or Three Jedi specs.
