multiplayer xp floor / syncing

requires https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2559634234 on the server host.

I made this mod for my group of friends, since we have a lot of drop-in players / friends who want to give the game a stab, and it's easiest to ramp people up on the game if they're roughly on-pace progression-wise in campaigns / can try out a class with a tree fully specced in a one-shot mission.

This mod is only published because I feel like it. It's provided entirely as-is and I do not consider feedback/etc. Feel free to do whatever with it, though.

This mod is server-only and is not required by clients in any way, shape, or form. This mod functions in two primary ways:

* In one-shot missions, sets everyone's XP so that everyone has 8 talent points to spend (can fully spec out one subtree).

* In campaigns, syncs everyone's XP *up to* (but not down) to that of the ship's captain, so that new players arent ♥♥♥♥♥♥ progression-wise.

ideally, it would sync from the "host"'s character in campaigns, but it turns out determining that is annoying. so instead I just went with the captain.

also ideally, the xp floor in one-shot missions should be configurable. currently it's just fixed to level 8, but I threw the xp table up to level 10 in the file so it's easily adjustable from there. I haven't yet looked at config options.
