All Arma 2 weapons except the TWS and launchers have a _DZ version now. So it is no longer confusing which weapon version should be spawned. Always use the _DZ versions.
This got discussed earlier. Since epoch got merged with DayZ Mod we have a different name for the scope and type of configs. A proper config should use numbers for those entries. This is the same how arma configs are written. The basicDefines.hpp has all the needed information stored.
Also, this removes the weight entries from the magazines since we have them in a separate folder, so admins can edit them.

Vanilla development commit:
af9e009bae
- renamed magazines for better sorting
- renamed attachments for better sorting ([A] prefix added) some fixes,
some strings moved to proper section
- Remington 870 added to new attachment system (weapon flashlight)
- Double-barrel shotgun will now spawns with pellets and has Doubleshot
option (maybe this will make it more popular?)
There is no point in having CfgBuildingPos.hpp in dayz_epoch_b too. It
was identical to the one in dayz_code and can be included in the mission
from there.
@icomrade couple questions:
1. Why keep a CfgLootLegacy? I know they are very different formats, but
it will just make things messier and more confusing. Also it will be a
PITA to maintain and update two different sets of loot tables in the
long run. I don't think catering to lazy admins is a good enough reason.
It's not that hard to convert to the new format.
2. Why not use the new _DZ weapon classes in the loot tables like
PDW_DZ, AKM_DZ, etc.?
3. Why not use the new box names like DZ_AmmoBoxRU, DZ_AmmoBoxUS,
DZ_MedBox, etc. in the loot tables?
4. Why remove the attachments from the loot tables?
