Fixed Forms Lists not being updated for weapon instances that are re-created on load.
Vanilla weapons can now be modified at using the Hotswap menu (M key) and at the weapons bench.

Vanilla modding system, and WS modding system have been separated. The WS is only used on weapons with WS mods. This means there's no need to create patches for weapons that use the older system.
A bunch of minor fixes for $OnAttachScript:, and $OnRemoveScript:
Support for B42 Optics
Support for Weapon Smith Akimbos
Independent Left and Right akimbo modding.
More efficient searching for kNVSE animations.

Fixed issues when attaching mods while dual wielding.

Removed print spam in Weapon Smith.
Fixed issue where you could open the weapon smith while dev mode was on.
Fixed Control Type not having a default value.
Restored missing UI file that was causing the check boxes in the menu to not display fully.
Fixed issue where controls wouldn't display at the bottom of your screen.
Added contextual popup message for when you activate the weapons bench without a valid weapon.
If the player trys to mod a weapon that's not equipped in the pipboy, it will now auto equip that weapon instead of failing.
Enter the mod menu by hitting the assigned hotkey, or having a moddable weapon equipped and activating a Work Bench. The weapon must be a weapon smith weapon to use the new features, otherwise it will use the vanilla system. It's recommended to have Depth of Field Fix - NVSE as the weapon menu uses depth of field.
