Some Depthswalker adjustments

Now that we've had a bit to see Depthswalker in action, here are some changes to address the major issues that have come up so far.

Aeonics
-------
* PARADOX will now replace a previous paradox if you use it on a target who is already suffering under one.
* PARADOX no longer counts defensive afflictions (insomnia, blindness, deafness) as potential options to cure.
* Triggering PARADOX now deducts from the total times it can fire, the same as when it does not drain mana.

Shadowmancy
-----------
* The capstone damage on DEGENERATION is now very minor damage if you do not have the target SHADOW ATTUNEd. Note that only one person can have a person attuned at a time, so this should ideally address the issues we've been seeing of trivial degeneration stacking in teams.
* If you have someone SHADOW ATTUNEd and have claimed their shadow (via sever/leech/etc), DEGENERATION will do the damage it does now. If you have them ATTUNEd but do not have their shadow, the damage will be halved.

Penned by My hand on the 6th of Phaestian, in the year 727 AF.
