SteamDB app page links to a few games using this

https://steamdb.info/app/1172620/ - Sea of Thieves

Brief explanation of the change

Adds support the Coherent GT SDK. There is already an existing rule for Coherent Gameface (or Prysm), but Coherent GT is an older version of that UI SDK on a different technology set. Confirmation of the correct CoherentUIGT.dll to look for is found on their own documentation page.

Why not add this to the existing rule?

I went with a separate one, because the existing SDK.Coherent_Gameface_OR_Prysm.md states
"Unfortunately we can't differentiate them as they both use the same libraries to work."
Which read to me as "if we could distinguish between them, we would".

Coherent GT can be distinguished, and is a different tech stack; it's just from the same company to achieve the same end result (allow developers to use web technology to write game UI).

If we merged them into one rule, we'd probably want to rename the existing rule to just be "SDK.Coherent" and then explain in the .md the difference in techs being caught. Which I'm happy to do if that's the route you'd like to go :)

Rename to just Coherent sounds fine to me.
