Summary
SUMMARY: Content "Add purse to bride and ballroom dancer professions"
Purpose of change
Fixes #38207
To prevent items from dropping to the ground as soon as you start with the female ballroom dancer or bride professions, added purse to the starting inventory.
Describe the solution
These professions now start with a purse in the female version.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I considered either making dresses store a small amount (0.5L), but this seemed potentially controversial based on the original issue's discussion thread. It seems reasonable that dresses can store 0.5L even if they don't have pockets.
The purse in the game stores 5L; for starting inventory, this seems maybe slightly OP compared to the tux which stores 2L. A better solution may be to add a "small purse" that stores 2L, but I didn't want to add a new item this close to release. I think that's a better long-term solution after release though.
Testing
Ran starts with maid, ballroom dancer, and bride before the change. Ballroom dancer and bride inventory tumbled to the floor.
Ran start after the change. The items remained in inventory.
Additional context
I think it's worth reconsidering modifying dresses, or adding a small purse, but both seemed a little extreme at this stage in the release.
