sprites: polaric upgrade; sprite offset fix. (#947)

Browse source 
* sprites: polaric upgrade; sprite offset fix.

The current pickup sprite looks pretty much exactly like what one might expect from drawing fanart of the id plasma rifle from memory. I've changed what I could while still remaining consistent with (and hopefully becoming more consistent with) the HUD sprite.

Since the gun shoots straight forwards I've also made the flash symmetrical - along with the projectile itself (but not *too* symmetrical). This does help address #932 a bit, but if anyone's got a better design I'm all eyes.

The blue flare along the top "spine" of the gun looked a bit janky on the left so I've smoothed it out a bit. The blue also lingers a bit in the B frame.

With all the ongoing news a lot of FPS player types will be following about artillery logistics in the IRL war, the use of "cannon" referring to this short handheld PDW is aging even more poorly than Doom's "clip". The best word I can think of as a substitute happens to result in an acronym I think we might as well lean into.

I've also adjusted some other projectile sprite offsets - my last attempt at fixing them actually placed the sprites a little too high.

* sprites: smooth out some jank left by paletting.

* sprites: do polaric flash as well.
