Cl_Interp Can No Longer Be Set Directly, Closing a Rubber-Banding Exploit

Players can no longer change cl_interp directly, since some were scripting it to a large value and causing bad rubber-banding; interpolation is now adjusted only through the "Buffering to smooth over packet loss" setting. The update also fixes a world gap at Crane and a bug where holding an incendiary grenade could show fire effects at a player's own feet.
