DLC config property incorrect for numerous items
New, NormalPublic

Description

In the configs for vehicles and weapons (including attachments), the DLC property is often missing or occasionally falsely flagged as an DLC when vanilla / platform feature.
This issue makes it impossible to write a UI script that can show required DLC for items a player is about to purchase or choose.

The DLC property should return what DLC the player needs to use that object or a new config property could be added.

An alternative solution could be adding a script command to query what DLC is needed (Steam ID or CfgMod name) for a given classname or config entry.
