If present, texture shadows will be generated from alpha of %alphatexture instead of $basetexture. This also permits texture shadows without $translucent or $alphatest being present. I also moved $alphatest check before $translucent check, because it's probably more common. I refrained from renaming the now inaccurately-named variables because I didn't want to accidentally break anything.

Description
If present, texture shadows will be generated from alpha of
%alphatextureinstead of$basetexture. This also permits texture shadows from static props without$translucentor$alphatestbeing present.I also moved
$alphatestcheck before$translucentcheck, because it's probably more common (not that that really speeds much up).I refrained from renaming the now inaccurately-named variables because I didn't want to accidentally break anything.
