Still needs to be cleaned up, and need to remove as much stuff out of base game classes as feasible

I'm gonna keep the changes to baseplayer_shared I think, it's the first place where the function Weapon_Switch is shared between server and client, allowing us to change the muzzle flash from either of those places without writing two separate functions

Shooting and seeing the muzzle flash results in a low FPS (~144 -> ~40), tested while standing and looking in a map corner.

looking back at the muzzle flash stuff im probably networking far too many variables, I wonder if the environment light created could also be contributing to the lower fps.

Thanks to the addition of the Tposing fix on master, I think we can remove networking almost entirely from this class now, since there is no instance where a local player switches to a specific weapon without the client knowing about it
