Point viewproxy

Entity description

A special kind of point_viewcontrol that allows the player to move, with the camera duplicating the movement of the player.

This was used in the intro of the single player campaign in portal 2 to separate the player view geometry from the player collision geometry while still allowing the player to move in the moving room.
