Subject: Chams: model-safe styles and a dedicated viewmodel material

VGUI/white materials do not draw skinned models, so every viewmodel style
except the model debug one made the hands/weapon disappear. Use model debug
materials for all styles: wireframe, additive vertex colour, translucent
single colour, translucent vertex colour, MRM fullbright. The viewmodel
always uses debug/debugtranslucentsinglecolor. A missing style now falls back
to that material instead of vgui/white.
