v0.9.19.1 The Sure Shot update

Quality of Life:

Aiming with firearms and darkness! We have completely re-thought the aiming algorithm with the goal of allowing you to 'aim' into the dark when you want to. From now on, you will shoot at the target you are most aiming at, whether it is lit or in darkness. The difference between the two is that lit enemies have auto lock applied (highlight and aim assist), whereas enemies in the dark will have no auto lock applied whatsoever. The main difference is that lit enemies will no longer 'gobble up' your aim if you intend to shoot at a target in the shadows. Note, we have kept the ability aiming algorithm the same, so that we can get this change in early, rather than wait for that.

This change was heavily inspired by your insightful feedback. Thank you! Fixes:
Injustice can now be truly banished! The pillars in the injustice arena are now vulnerable when you have done the thing you need to do to unlock them (spoiler averted).

Fixed the Boss Unkillable fix, which was caused when applying freeze during the fight!
Fixed the Outlaw Soft lock issue, where sometimes the outlaw will not light the lantern in it's room.
Defeating the preacher II should unlock the Met your Match award.

Small fixes:
Characters face one another when chatting - isn't that nice?
Righteous souls fade out a little more smoothly.
Enemies no longer slide when dying.
Outlaw room doesn't lock you out.
Aggressor charm description.
Some Chinese localisation fixes.

Note:
We have changed the save version to support these changes. This will mean that your current run will be lost, however your progress in that run (any sin spent etc.) will not be.
