KWG ICE 1: Enhancement Pack v2

This huge collaborative effort is finally available for Train Sim World 4 and 5!

WARNING: The GSM-R causes crashes with power cars painted with the TSW Livery Designer! Make sure to remove all Livery Designer ICE 1 liveries. This crash issue while fixable now, hasn't been a priority for the v2 update.
