Coherent Sandstone Statues

okay so. starbound has these sandstone statues, you're likely to have seen them in oasis microdungeons and you probably didn't think much of them. however, if you read their scan descriptions, you might notice that some things don't match up. the statues look like generic members of their species, yet some descriptions act as if they're identifiable and important individuals to the races' histories. some of them even talk about clothing, which the statues are Not wearing (all the statues are naked besides the human one, which i'd like to add is stupid). as if that wasn't enough, a lot of the descriptions also reference parts of the beta lore which have since been retconned, which would probably confuse players who are not in the know (not that starbound lore is very digestible to begin with).

so the statues are unfinished, blatantly so. not only did the devs clearly have more planned for them, but they also haven't been meaningfully touched since their addition. awesome.

and this is where i, a very smart modder, come in and FIX chucklefish's BLATANT disregard for their FLAGSHIP FRANCHISE (to the best of my ability).

this mod adds new sprites for the apex, avian, floran and hylotl statues, alongside a small change to the human statue, the glitch statue is untouched (i'll get to why later).
i didn't remove the beta lore because Patch Project already does a good job with that.

here's the individual changes and my reasoning behind them:

apex statue:
- its apex scan description claims she was a pro-wrestler, so i gave her some human starter clothing (apex clothing isn't exactly fit for wrestling and i think apex culture would realistically have "Sleeveless Tops" and "Casual Shorts").
- the original sprite also had a dislocated arm.
- patch project changes the pronouns used for the apex description, this mod loads after it and undoes that change.

avian statue:
- its avian scan description states "This Avian is known for uniting the grounded and encouraging us to spread our wings". this is not very helpful, but i settled on giving it part of the owl set since it makes him look important enough, and there were few avian options to begin with.

floran statue:
- its floran scan description says "Greenfinger. Ssspecial Floran. Sssmell funny.", presumably talking about the beta character, patch project changes "greenfinger" to "first greenfinger" (it seems far fetched that all florans would recognize the first ever greenfinger, but we're working with what we have). regardless, i just gave it what all greenfingers in the game wear.

glitch statue:
- not changed. unlike every other statue, this one depicts the "first glitch model" as opposed to focusing on an individual (i guess they're left out due to being robots, as always).

human statue:
- very minor change, i changed its collision to be the same as all the other statues, i had to do the same with the floran one (due to the greenfinger's headdress) and it'd be absurd if a single bit of hair took up space while a huge hat didn't.

hylotl statue:
- its hylotl scan description claims she was a princess, so i gave her the kimono set, as it seemed like the closest match.
- patch project does not change her pronouns or her name (i assume they couldn't come up with one), but if it (or any other mod) ever does, it should be overwritten by this one.
