Convert weapon_list to weapons.json

[royfalk]

Including generating script and actual file.
Note that this change and the previous one to units will break Wing Commander.

Code Changes:

• Have the PR Validation Tests been run? See https://github.com/vegastrike/Vega-Strike-Engine-Source/wiki/Pull-Request-Validation

Issues:

• There are previous issues in the weapon_list that should be addressed at some point.
• The JSON library does not conform to the standard, making the code sloppier than I would have liked.
• Old files (units.csv and weapon_list.xml) have not been deleted yet.

Assuming the weapons.json is correct.

@royfalk @ermo we need something similar for PWCU

Simply run convert.py (weapon_list.xml) and parser.py (units.csv) and it will generate it for you.

I did not run a complete comparison of the two, but I did spot check and they seem identical. Also, the script is pretty simple so I don't see a lot of places where it can go wrong.

Yeah, I'm working on the units conversion as we speak.
