Powerbase + AI mod

[Todie]

Goal: Increase the difficulty of the game, both for domestic politicking and challenge from AI-countries. If powerbase and loyalty mechanics are tweaked just right, the challenge of domestic politics can scale in a way that keeps players on edge - even late in the game with a large realm.

Recommended difficulty: Hard.

This mod increases the importance of character powerbase and makes it faster and easier for characters to obtain more power through scheming for holdings and loyal cohorts / veterans.

In addition, the Mod makes AI countries a bit more active and aggressive and to handle integration and cultural decisions a bit smarter.

Finally, the mod reduces various sources of +/- to civil war threshold and tweaks the AI cheats for Hard / very hard and antagonist tags.

hard AI gets less morale modifier% but also gets bonuses to:
- Base morale (1-2 techs worth)
- Morale recovery (0.02 - 0.04)
- Commerce (10-15%)
- Tech investment (10-15%)

#ToDo : Add new character interactions for more convenient granting and revoking of several holdings at a time.
Localization
More added/tweaked schemes and events

This mod should be compatible with "unofficial patch" mod.

I patched in a buff to family estates today, and added an event that highlights when estates are built or expanded upon.

local_output_modifier = 0.05 ### default 0.03
    local_population_capacity = 1
    local_base_trade_routes_modifier = 0.08
    local_population_growth = 0.08
    local_migration_attraction = 0.5
    local_monthly_civilization = 0.01

I also tweaked a lot of numbers in the schemes I have added, and added new variants of schemes.
