Leather Gauntlets Weight Discrepancy in DFU 1.1.1 (0.63 kg vs. Classic 0.5 kg)

[Erisceres]

Describe the issue
In unmodded Daggerfall Unity 1.1.1, the weight of leather gauntlets is incorrectly calculated as 0.63 kg, whereas in classic Daggerfall, the weight is 0.5 kg. Leather gauntlets are currently the only armor item whose weight is not a multiple of 0.25 kg, suggesting a deviation from both design consistency and classic data.

The discrepancy appears to arise from the current formula used for calculating leather armor weights:

F_w = B_w / 2

With a base weight B_w of 1.25 kg for gauntlets, this results in:

F_w = 1.25 / 2 = 0.625, rounded to 0.63 kg

However, this conflicts with classic Daggerfall and leads to inconsistent results compared to the general formula used for other gear types.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install a clean version of DFU 1.1.1 with no mods.
2. Obtain a set of leather gauntlets in-game or view their item data in the inventory.
3. Observe that the displayed weight is 0.63 kg.

Expected behavior
The leather gauntlets should weigh 0.5 kg, in line with classic Daggerfall and consistent with the weight granularity of 0.25 kg increments used throughout the rest of the gear system.

Suggested fix
Update the formula for leather item weight calculation to mirror the general gear formula, adjusted for leather's material properties:

S_w = INT(B_w * 4)
A_w = S_w / 2
F_w = Mathf.Round(A_w) / 4

This formula correctly yields 0.5 kg for leather gauntlets and does not affect any other leather armor values, which already align with expectations.
