Metal Flesh - Upgradeable SPARK

Add the Proving Ground item that upgrades your SPARK to help them keep up with enemies added by all the various mods you may have installed. (Or maybe you just like the idea of ​​SPARK having a melee specialist).

Due to the way the game handles slots, SPARK gets a utility slot with this mod. This will change if I can find a way to actually add it via the project.

Most .ini changes will be located in My Games\XCOM2\XComGame\Config\XComSPARKUpgradesSettings.ini or with MCM in-game, but some select settings are editable (where XCOM 2 is installed)\steamapps\workshop\content\268500\720053228\Config\XComSPARKUpgrades.ini

The rest of the SPARK project is:

SPARK inhibition

A time-only research project into what will allow SPARK to overwhelm enemies.

NOTE: Since XCOM 2 requires these abilities to be attached to weapons, defualt only works on vanilla SPARK weapons, but you can add mod weapons to SPARKUpgrades.ini.
