Reverse the Darkstalkers alias and change characters' qualifiers

BUR #28051 has been approved by @Hillside_Moose.

create alias vampire_(game) -> darkstalkers
create alias anita_(vampire) -> anita_(darkstalkers)
create alias felicia_(vampire) -> felicia_(darkstalkers)
create alias gallon_(vampire) -> jon_talbain
create alias phobos_(vampire) -> huitzil_(darkstalkers)
create alias sasquatch_(vampire) -> sasquatch_(darkstalkers)
rename bishamon -> bishamon_(darkstalkers)

Darkstalkers is a much more recognisable name that plain Vampire. It's aliased to it, but people who don't know about the alias might be tripped off (I know I was). And it's just plain awkward to have a normal word like vampire for a copyright when there's a better alternative.
But the real problem comes with character qualifiers. Tags like character_(vampire) just make it seem like it's refering to a character's vampire form rather than the char coming from a copyright called Vampire.
Bishamon gets a rename rather than an alias because there are other characters named Bishamon (which is the short form of Bishamonten). For Gallon and Phobos I used their localised names, but I wasn't sure about also changing the names of other characters to their localised forms for consistency.

Yaay, swapping english aliases!!!

I added a qualifer for Mei-Ling since it's a somewhat common name.
I made B.B. Hood the main tag alias and her full name an alias since IIRC B.B. Hood is the more used name (in official material, at least). It could be swapped though, it doesn't matter much to me.
Every other alias already existed.

Don't forget to include the minor characters that still have *_(vampire) as their qualifier, like B.B. Hood's dog Harry.

Whoops >_<;;

Now everything should be ok, also noticed Felicia has a tag for her cat form that's not implied so I went and did that too.
