Make the Bible protect BibleUsers when held
About the PR
I made the bible protect the Chaplain from Cultist Damage and Metaphysical damage when held.
Why / Balance
The Chaplain should be a menace to cultists and anything metaphysically related. Though they are easily cut down. Now, when they hold the bible, they will receive half as much unholy/holy/cold/asphyx damage. They can reliable engage into a skia and cultist might need to stun a chaplain rather than murder them, unless they get the drop on them when they aren't holding the bible.
There is one annoying bug where they also take half damage from having no air, but I'll PR a fix upstream today. Not having air in your lungs should probably circumvent resistances.
I've got some more buffs in mind for Epistemics. Such as making the bible upgradable via an altar interaction, and giving the Mantis' jacket a psionically insulated jacket as well as a visibile range to their metapsionic pulse.
Technical details
Added HandHeldArmorSystem and the respective Component. Whenever someone gets hit, it'll check a whitelist if they have the sufficient components and then reduce damages. A few YML changes.
