About the pull request

Removes the Grenadier helmets facehugging protection.

Explain why it's good for the game

An ancient hold over from when the Grenadier used the B18 armour. It makes little sense for a support Specialist, who hides in the rear, to have facehug protection. This also can punish smart hugger traps or hugger players who catch the Grenadier off guard but then discover they have protection.

While I do agree that it is a bit odd for the grenadier to be the one with the heaviest armor (in my eyes, from a "makes sense" standpoint, the demo spec would be that), I don't see why the grenadier's armor should be chipped away at. As such, I will be closing this PR. If you are interested in pursuing this further, please send me a design plan that involves entirely reworking GL's armor instead of removing one fairly minor aspect of it.
