class CBA_MiscItem_ItemInfo not backwards compatible to class ItemInfo

[Pergor]

Arma 3 Version: current (stable)
CBA Version: 3.4.1.170912
ACE3 Version: 3.11.0

Mods:

- CBA_A3
- ace

Description:

• ACE-compatible custom items are broken with missing backwards compatibility after switch to CBA_MiscItem. Don't know if it's something that ought to be mended or rather just something that ought to be made known to modders.

Steps to reproduce:

class cfgWeapons {
	class ACE_ItemCore;
	class InventoryItem_Base_F;
	
    class adv_aceCPR_AED: ACE_ItemCore {
        scope = 2;
        displayName = "Automated External Defibrillator";
        picture = "\adv_aceCPR\ui\defib.paa";
		model = "\A3\Structures_F_EPA\Items\Medical\Defibrillator_F.p3d";
        descriptionShort = "Use to resuscitate player";
        descriptionUse = "Use to resuscitate player";
        class ItemInfo: InventoryItem_Base_F {
            mass = 30;
        };
	};
};

Item can't be added to inventory any longer.

class cfgWeapons {
	class ACE_ItemCore;
	class CBA_MiscItem_ItemInfo;
	
    class adv_aceCPR_AED: ACE_ItemCore {
        scope = 2;
        displayName = "Automated External Defibrillator";
        picture = "\adv_aceCPR\ui\defib.paa";
		model = "\A3\Structures_F_EPA\Items\Medical\Defibrillator_F.p3d";
        descriptionShort = "Use to resuscitate player";
        descriptionUse = "Use to resuscitate player";
        class ItemInfo: CBA_MiscItem_ItemInfo {
            mass = 30;
        };
	};
};

Item works again.

Many items became of type AccessoryBipod

diag_log format ["%1 -> %2", _x, _x call bis_fnc_itemtype];
}forEach ["ACE_EarPlugs","ACE_RangeCard","ACE_Clacker","ACE_M26_Clacker","ACE_DeadManSwitch","ACE_DefusalKit","ACE_MapTools","ACE_Flashlight_MX991","ACE_Sandbag_empty","ACE_wirecutter","ACE_RangeTable_82mm","ACE_EntrenchingTool","ACE_Cellphone","ACE_CableTie","ACE_SpottingScope","ACE_Tripod","ACE_fieldDressing","ACE_bloodIV_500","ACE_bloodIV","ACE_epinephrine","ACE_morphine","ACE_bodyBag"];

Yes, CBA_MiscItem is a bipod, a workaround to show them in Virtual Arsenal correctly. And yes, all mods should change it to use CBA_MiscItem_ItemInfo as well, ACE_ItemCore can be kept though.
