Data update - IS faction light Mek review 2900-3049

[SuperStucco]

This is the first in a series of reviews of availability data with the goals of:

• checking intro dates
• checking faction availability
• adding any missing chassis and models e.g. recently introduced Commando '7-series'

This particular group is one of the oldest and has seen little in the way of changes over the years, so was a good starting point.

Another goal specific to this time period is addressing the lack of variation between A-rated (best equipped) and F-rated (worst-equipped) forces. This is particularly difficult here due to the lack of advanced technology that would otherwise be used in other periods. The +/- availability adjustment is used so forces generated at the highest level have a representative portion of faction-associated Meks such as the Panther, Valkyrie, and Commando; while those at the lowest level are much more generic with the common Wasp -1A, Locust -1V, Stinger -3R, and similar Meks.

As an example, this is the new distribution of Fed Suns A-rated vs. F-rated generation (all values as percentages). The A-rated force will generate with Fed Suns associated Meks such as the Valkyrie and Javelin plus models such as the Wasp -1D. The F-rated force will have some of the most common but a much lower frequency.
