Subject: [PATCH] Adds the "Limper" quirk (#96200)

## About The Pull Request

Adds a new negative quirk, called Limper. This quirk, as you could
probably guess, will make you limp. Specifically, the limp it gives you
is the same level as a compound fracture, so it's pretty significant.
Luckily, you spawn with a cane, which as long as you are holding you
won't be slowed down. This quirk is -6 points as it is pretty
significant (have to hold an item in one of your hands at all times,
losing this item makes you hella slow) but not quite as devastating as
other disability quirks.
