Ranger rebalance

Retuned various aspects of the Ranger class to better balance it and make melee-focused builds more viable while maintaining game balance.

Ranger Rebalance re-tweaks various aspects of the Ranger class to better balance it and make melee-focused builds more viable while trying to maintain overall game balance.

While other mods have tried to solve the problem of swords as secondary weapons by breaking design aspects of XCOM 2 (such as making the blade provide predatory damage), this mod attempts to give the player enough of a reward since using the blade warrants taking the risks associated with it, such as accidental pod activation or loss.

Juggernaut now allows sword strikes to ignore 2 points of enemy armor in addition to the +2 base damage it provides.

Implacable and Shadowstrike have swapped places, allowing for a degree of risk mitigation in the early game while also slightly delaying how quickly the stealth/shotgun Ranger spec becomes more powerful.

Reaper cooldown reduced from 5 turns to 3 to compensate for the risk of the pod activating and the diminishing returns of the damage it causes.

Curved Blade's base damage increased by +1 compared to vanilla. Fusion Blades damage increased by +2.
