Update v5.9.6

I'm back from my vacation, so you can expect more updates as usual again! I have a lot of backlog so it might take awhile to start up the engines again though.

Features

• **Added Metamorphosis Buffs Feature **Added new kinds of buffs that can change the player's base sprite to anything and hide specific equipment/hair/eye sprites. This will be useful in the future for Cursed Seals or Hermit Mode style techniques.

• **Added Shop Layout Feature **Shops can now display differently for different types of shops. For the time being, it's being used to display Scribe shops with no character preview but more technique information instead.

• **Added new Shop layout for Scribes **

** **With filters and better sorting to streamline getting new techniques.

• (Debug) Added /reloadtextures command for quick reloading of textures for admins mainly
