1.9.2 - Pudge Rot Animation and Effects

• Added authored Rot start, pulsing loop, and fade-out animations using dedicated vent and belly motion that remains compatible with Pudge locomotion.
• Replaced the previous server-broadcast particle flood with bounded client-only sickly green-brown ground haze and body smoke using radial falloff.
• Added distance culling, Minecraft particle-setting scaling, per-Pudge cadence, and a global active-effect cap; the highest preset emits at most 20 particles per second per visible Pudge instead of roughly 460.
• Synchronized only Rot start tick, animation phase, and intensity primitives; activation, targeting, damage, self-damage, slowing, and radius remain server-owned.
• Preserved existing Meat Hook Rot grace behavior and all Rot balance values.
