Controller support improvements:
- big improvements to controller support

- better, more consistent highlighting of the currently focused element
- directional input can now be held to scroll through multiple items while holding that direction
- adds new button prompts for xbox, playstation, and nintendo controllers
- game will automatically try to select the best prompts to show, but this can be overridden in the settings menu (note that this setting is only available if you have a controller connected)
- available button prompt sets:
-- Auto (will attempt to match to your controller)
-- Keyboard
-- XBox
-- Steam Deck
-- PlayStation
-- Generic
-- Generic (inv.)
-- Nintendo
-- Nintendo (inv.)
- adds setting for showing and hiding different amounts of button prompts
-- can choose between default, hide all prompts, hide hit/stand, and default + interact (which will show the interact prompt on hovered item)
- when a card is hovered by the mouse while the game gives control back to the player the hovered card will now start hovered

New and updated sound effects:
- updated: lock
- new: unlock
- updated: gain shield
- updated: heal
- new: fortune teller mat rolling/unrolling
- new: deck shuffled
This updates the remaining bloopy-blorpy sounds with more physical sound effects.


Card effect changes:

On play: gain chips equal to value of this card.
- reworks Monterey Jack:
Exploit: heal 1 HP and shred.
On stand: permanent +2 to the exploit heal.
- buffs High Priestess II:
On play: lock.
Exploit: shuffle your discarded cards into your draw pile.
- buffs Time Card:
On play or exploit: gain 10 chips if you have a played card worth 9 or 5.
- buffs Get Well Soon Card:
On play: lock.
On taking damage: add 1 token. If there are already 2 tokens, heal 10 HP, unlock, then remove all tokens.
- buffs Lucky 7:
At end of round: if you have at least 3 cards worth 7 in play, gain 77 chips and deal 7 damage.
- tweaks Baseball Card: can now have it's permanent value reduced and increased by other cards, meaning it works much more consistently with cards like Break Limits, Queen of Wonderland, or Suit Yourself + Blood Donor Card
- changes Magic Trick Card to not be a Face (for the purpose of King of the World/King of the Hill) while it has been chosen to be a 7
- when flexible cards are discarded their value will now be set to the highest flexible value for that card (was previously the case for standard and negative Aces, now applies to other flexible cards too)

- if the player would die to quick damage from Trap Card or Carduus Acanthoides but has already defeated their opponent, heal the player back up to 1 HP
- the Minor Arcana 5s are now drawn from a bag rather that randomly selected each encounter, this will prevent rolling the same Minor Arcana 5 over and over
