[Highly Customized] Universal customize health bar

[NetsuNegi]

• Now you can specify the type of Health Bar to customize its style.
• 现在你可以指定血条的类型来改变其样式。
• The same applies to Shield.
• 这也同样适用于护盾。
• It should also be easy to expand to other types of progress bars.
• 它应当可以很容易地被用来作为其他进度条使用。

[Otamaa]

the code look more clean and easy to understand
please consider to reopen it .

At the moment I am not really sure how to proceed, ideally I would like if @NetsuNegi and @Fryone cooperated on the same pull request and took the best parts of each, since you both seem to be interested in the feature.

[Coronia]

reopen cuz there's no much progress on #1395, and this one is more suitable for a base due to its extendibility
