adds the EA version of the nightsong hairstyle to CC, for all races, gender and body types
So turns out the early access nightsong hairstyle ( back when nightsong was supposed to be an avatar of Shar ) was still in the game files after all this time and i've always liked this version way more than the released 'umberlee' version, so i reworked the model i've found in the files to make it autosnapping and available to all bodytypes and races, and gave it the same physics as umberlee's version.
comes with it's own custom icons!
