Bug Description

Right now, the new sides in Ares dont have a voice, they are mute!
EVA.Tag= exists in manual, but not in the DLL.

Example(my version):

evamd.ini:
[EVA_ConstructionComplete]
Text=Construction Complete.
Russian=csof048
Allied=ceva048
Yuri=cyur048
Alien=al048
Priority= LOW

rulesmd.ini
EVA.Tag= Allied|Russian|Yuri|Alien (these are available, you can add as many as you like)

If set to Alien, it would load all Alien= tag in each section in evamd.ini and use them for EVA.

##### ADDITIONAL INFORMATION #####
DCoder is aware that the new sides dont have a voice, but wont implant this unless this get some support. So vote if you dont want to have mute sides!

Feature available in alex04 branch.

All new EVA types have to be named in the new [EVATypes] list in evamd.ini. This is a list like every other list, i.e. the part left of the equal sign is ignored. The voices called "Allied", "Russian" and "Yuri" are always added.

Example:
[EVATypes]
0=Cabal
1=GDI

Now, these values can be used as keys in the EVA sound sections to point to a EVA-specific filename.

Example:
[EVA_LowPower]
Cabal=ccab053
GDI=cgdi053

To give a side a certain EVA voice, use [Side]EVA.Tag=. It takes an EVA type from above, or one of the values "Allied", "Russian", "Yuri" or "none".
