Disable DLC Ads

Description
Mod Description
This mod disables the DLC advertisement banner on the main menu.

I am aware of another mod that does the same thing, but this mod achieves it in a different way.

Instead of moving the banner out of view, which requires overriding the frontend.gui file, this mod overrides the banner graphics with empty textures and DLC advertisement text with empty spaces through a localisation file. This is probably a less elegant way, but it shouldn't conflict with any interface mods (such as Bigger Interface) the way the former method does.

Also, this shouldn't cause too many problems when the game updates. The worst you could experience is a banner and text appearing without the border (if you don't own the DLC's released after the last update of this mod), but this should be simple to fix and maintain.

If you do see an ad, please do post the DLC that the advertisement is for in the comments. I might've missed some lines in the localisation files.

Ironman
This mod is Ironman compatible.
Compatibility
This mod should be compatible with everything.

That's like saying "Why are homeless people homeless, just get a house!''... It's not easy for everybody to get the dlc....(Or This is going to be on r/wooosh)

Thanks. I like the idea of the unintrusive implementation you described above.
