Summary: Clarify EQSLOTS and item TYPES for equipment slots

Initial Comment:
I propose changing names of several EQSLOTs and a couple of item TYPEs, for greater clarity in the datasets and on character sheets. Some of these would have the side effect of removing the need to clarify between "Glove" and "Gloves" or "Boot" and "Boots" in prettylst.

This would necessitate updating all of the datasets accordingly.

* EQSLOT:Eyes would become EQSLOT:Face
* EQSLOT:Back would become EQSLOT:Shoulders
* EQSLOT:Hand would become EQSLOT:Hands
* EQSLOT:Chest and EQSLOT:Leg would go away; I do not see anything in the SRD that implies separate slots for Legs and Feet, or Chest and Torso
* Items of TYPE:Shirt would become TYPE:Clothing (and therefore fall under EQSLOT:Torso)
* CONTAINS:Eyegear=1 would become CONTAINS:Facewear=1
* CONTAINS:Glove=1 would become CONTAINS:Handwear=1
* CONTAINS:Boot=1 would become CONTAINS:Footwear=1
* Add RINGS:2 NUMSLOTS:DEFAULT to reduce the confusion of using NUMBER:TORSO for the Fingers EQSLOT.
* CONTAINS:Ring=2 would become CONTAINS:Ring=1

So equipmentslots.lst would look like this:

-----
NUMSLOTS:DEFAULT   HEAD:1   HANDS:2   TORSO:1   LEGS:2   SHIELD:1   RINGS:2

EQSLOT:Face   CONTAINS:Facewear=1   NUMBER:HEAD
EQSLOT:Head   CONTAINS:Headgear=1   NUMBER:HEAD
EQSLOT:Neck   CONTAINS:Neckwear=1       NUMBER:HEAD
EQSLOT:Body   CONTAINS:Bodywear=1   NUMBER:TORSO
EQSLOT:Shoulders   CONTAINS:Cape=1   NUMBER:TORSO
EQSLOT:Skin   CONTAINS:PsionicTattoo=20   NUMBER:TORSO
EQSLOT:Torso   CONTAINS:Clothing=1   NUMBER:TORSO
EQSLOT:Waist   CONTAINS:Belt=1   NUMBER:TORSO
EQSLOT:Arms   CONTAINS:Armwear=1   NUMBER:HANDS
EQSLOT:Hands   CONTAINS:Handwear=1   NUMBER:HANDS
EQSLOT:Weapon   CONTAINS:Weapon=1   NUMBER:HANDS
EQSLOT:Feet   CONTAINS:Footwear=1   NUMBER:LEGS
EQSLOT:Fingers   CONTAINS:Ring=2   NUMBER:RINGS
EQSLOT:Shield   CONTAINS:Shield=1   NUMBER:SHIELD
