Fix 2 decal issues

• Fix decals not appearing when a projectile with 0 size (blaster, crylink, hagar) hits a surface with a small angle. This fix also improves the previous fix for the same issue for hitscan weapons (1db2592b)

• Fix #2128 (closed) "Hitscan weapons create no decals when shooting almost straight down at the floor I am standing on"

• Save 3 bytes by sending the force vector slightly compressed

added MR SizeSmall Topic: Rendering + 1 deleted label

Currently a decal for a vortex shot can spawn if the shot angle is at least ~11.48° (3rd screenshot). With this patch a decal can spawn if the shot angle is at least ~1.94° (1st and 2nd screenshot). With smaller angles (hit point further away) decals won't spawn.

~1.94°	~1.94° zoomed	~11.48°

EDIT: sorry I corrected the angles, they were inverted
