Fixes a bug/oversight in Diverse Skyrim that prevents most Orc soldiers from wearing their intended heavy armor.

REQUIREMENTS:
DIVERSE SKYRIM SSE
Short description for standard users:
Diverse Skyrim adds new Orc legionnaires to the spawn pools for Imperial soldiers. They are supposed to wear heavy armor, however due to a bug/oversight the vast majority of them won't. This fixes that issue so that they will spawn with the proper heavy armor. This problem is actually visible in one of Diverse Skyrim's screenshots, I'm surprised no one has fixed it yet.
Long description for nerds:
Note: there are some specific leveled NPCs, like scouts and archers, that use light armor, and some of them can spawn as Orcs. These NPCs have not been edited, so there may be specific instances where Orc archers or scouts will spawn with light armor, however these are intentional.
INSTALLATION:
Install with MO2 or Vortex.
COMPATIBILITY:
Relevant Unofficial Patch changes have been carried over. I assume it should be compatible with everything. Proper Bash Tags are included in the ESP's description field, so it works fine with a Bashed Patch, which should further minimize compatibility issues.
LOAD ORDER:
Load after Diverse Skyrim.
Plugin is ESL flagged and won't take up a slot in your load order.
That's all... enjoy!

The problem: The game pulls from a list of Imperial Soldiers and spawns them at a given location, cool. In the vanilla game, all Imperial Soldiers pretty much use the same gear, so precautions to make sure gear changes from individual Imperial Soldiers don't get overwritten weren't taken. More often than not, the base leveled NPC that pulls from the list of Imperial Soldiers uses its own gear list. In vanilla this isn't an issue, however Diverse Skyrim gives Orc soldiers heavy armor to spawn with instead of the normal light and medium sets. By default, this change will be completely ignored in most cases, because the bulk of leveled NPC spawners use their own gear. Not only is this completely unnecessary as the gear is already assigned to the individual leveled NPCs, but it also means most Orc soldiers will just use regular armor.
The solution: 6 necessary leveled NPCs are now set to use the inventory of the Imperial Soldiers they pull from. This means that Orc soldiers that spawn will now use heavy armor instead of light or medium armor. Since all the NPCs it pulls from have their own gear, it doesn't do anything else or cause any issues.
