Changes Skyrim's Gourd from a food into an ingredient that can be used at the Alchemy Lab, as it would appear Bethesda originally intended.

Gourd Ingredient
This mod replaces Skyrim's Gourd with an ingredient version.
A simple hidden perk will silently exchange the food version of the Gourd for the new ingredient version when it is picked up by the player.
I have given the Gourd ingredient two effects which seemed to be already justified by the game (based on what it did as a food, and what an in-game recipe suggests it should do as in ingredient), and I've given it two other effects that seemed appropriate to me. If you want the full effect list spoiler, click the readme tab above.
Although the mod Gourds as Ingredients has been around for some time, that mod has some very undesirable side-effects because it directly edits every cell in the game that has a Gourd in it. This version doesn't edit any vanilla Skyrim assets, not even the original Gourd. So it should be totally compatible with anything, and it should work very easily without any overhead or anything like that.
