Revert the Unforeseen + Dark Devotion bug fix

I know, it sounds weird to ask to revert a bug fix, however it was a bug fix that only removed synergy between two relatively harmless, off meta but fun perks.

On the All Things Wicked PTB, you could have both of these perks active at the same time to create two Terror Radiuses at the same time, one from the kicked generator and one from the Obsession you hit. Not practical, if anything it isn't even a benefit for most killers, but a funny synergy nonetheless that is entirely unique and can be used for shenanigans and nothing more.

However, this synergy was fixed (i.e, removed) when the update went live.

And its a damn shame, because as a 4300 hour Doctor main, this would be hilarious. And I can already say with confidence that it wouldn't be a meta build at all, just funny to send off two static blasts while not having to actually be near anyone you hit. Throw on the Calm add-on for additional confusion.

When neither perk is oppressive or even particularly strong, and together they make for a funny if impractical synergy that's not meta by any means even on the killers it would benefit… why fix them working together?
