let's only render ascendancy flavor text when we are actually zoomed in enough to read it.

also, dim unselected ascendancy flavor text at a clip of 50% (to match the existing background dimming).

Description of the problem being solved:

When zoomed out, many ascendancy flavor texts bleed out from its portrait. Fix this by hiding flavor text until an appropriate zoom level is reached.

While we're here, let's also dim any unselected ascendancy's flavor text at a clip of 50% (matching existing background art dimming).

Steps taken to verify a working solution:

  • Visually inspect flavor text at various zoom levels
  • Select/Deselect ascendancy to see flavor text dimming

Link to a build that showcases this PR:

N/A, empty build will suffice.

Before/After Images

Before screenshot:

When zoomed out, we see bleeding text which looks unprofessional. You can't read this text anyways.

notice the text clipping out

After screenshot:

Hide the flavor text when zoomed out.

notice no text

Before/After Images (text dimming) image

notice both the selected and unselected ascendancy have the same text style

As you can see, it is now much more obvious which ascendancy is selected and we have a more coherent design language by dimming unselected ascendancy's background and flavour text.
