Arms Skill List Part 1

This is more specific but based on previous post
This is basically the first half of the arms skill descriptions for specific weapons
The second half are more like exotic fighting feats mostly for fighters
Im willing to consider corrections and additions in comments
Part 2 will be like similar lists ive done in past but more streamlined and better named and less overall skills. Also designed to be less minmaxable vs my old lists.
