We've created our own Git Large File Storage (LFS) server due to the
excessive cost of GitHub's bandwidth. Did you know all of their Ethernet
cables are actually gold coated diamonds?
This PR reverses the work done in #954 to compress large location JSON
files into a 7zip archive and handle the (de)compression of the archive.
Only JSON files within the `project/assets/database/` directory that are
larger than 5MB have been included in LFS. This translates to all of the
`looseLoot.json` files. The rest are small enough to be included in the
base repo.
A `.lfsconfig` file has been added to the root of the project to alert
git to the presence of the custom LFS server. This public server is
read-only. Write access is only available to developers within the
Single Player Tarkov GitHub organization.
