Japanese and Chinese Tent Models aren't being used by the object

Issue:

The developers / artists have created Tent Models for the Japanese and Chinese civilizations, that aren’t set to be used by the normal tents. This means if you play any Sudden Death Map, or other map with the Tent object, you will get Greek Tents as a Chinese or Japanese major god.

Luckily this is a very easy fix, as these models already exist in the game, and the developers only need to copy 4 lines in the Proto file.

By default the Tent unit type only has Icons and Animfiles for the 4 main cultures.

<unit name="Tent">
    <icon culture="greek">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_greek_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="egyptian">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_egyptian_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="norse">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_norse_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="atlantean">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_atlantean_icon.png</icon>
    <animfile culture="greek">shared\buildings\tent\tent_greek.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="egyptian">shared\buildings\tent\tent_egyptian.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="norse">shared\buildings\tent\tent_norse.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="atlantean">shared\buildings\tent\tent_atlantean.xml</animfile>
  </unit>

But the TentSPC has all 6.

<unit name="TentSPC">
    <icon culture="greek">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_greek_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="egyptian">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_egyptian_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="norse">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_norse_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="atlantean">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_atlantean_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="chinese">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_chinese_icon.png</icon>
    <icon culture="japanese">resources\spc\static_color\buildings\tent_spc_japanese_icon.png</icon>
    <animfile culture="greek">spc\buildings\tent\tent_spc_greek.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="egyptian">spc\buildings\tent\tent_spc_egyptian.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="norse">spc\buildings\tent\tent_spc_norse.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="atlantean">spc\buildings\tent\tent_spc_atlantean.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="chinese">spc\buildings\tent\tent_spc_chinese.xml</animfile>
    <animfile culture="japanese">spc\buildings\tent\tent_spc_japanese.xml</animfile>
  </unit>

Copying the missing 4 lines into the Tent Unit fixes this display bug.
