Summary	0004181: Melee weapons should be able to break glass in one hit
Description	Melee weapons should be able to break glass in one hit, if the weapon damage is greater than the glass' health.
Additional Information	To break a func_facture like glass, you have to first reduce its health to 0 and then apply any kind of touch or impulse to make the glass shatter. Thrown items and arrows can break glass in one hit. That's because the moveable collision code first applies damage then applies a physics force, in that order. Melee weapons don't break glass in one hit because they do it the other way round: first the force, then the damage. It's all done in the weapons Think() routine, and there's not much going on between the two effects, so we should try switching them round.

Now that we have a general Damage() function for glass (idBrittleFracture) as a result of 0004180, we can simply have it raise a Touch event after any damage, which will shatter glass that's at 0 health
