RickGrymes a59c65285a Refactor NCR character and backstory definitions
Moved NCR character-specific backstories from BackstoryDefs_NCR.xml to new CharacterBackstories_NCR.xml. Split character definitions into multiple CharacterDefs_NCR_Part files and removed the old FCP_NCR_CharacterDefs.xml. Added and organized PawnKindDefs for NCR characters. Updated FCP_NCR.xml and PawnKinds.xml to reference new definitions. This improves maintainability and organization of NCR character and backstory data.
