Natural halo Reshade (The graphic Improvment experience)

- Eye adaptaive of Bloom effect has now less effect, so the rendering of ui and main menu is correct,

- Replace Lumasharp by FilmicAnamorphSharpen, so sharpen is only in center of screen and sky is smooth

- few less colors

- better shadow

... in other words, the rendering is more natural
