Renewal Simple Defense Formula Flag (#8429)

- Added a flag "SimpleDefense" to mark skills that use the simple defense formula
  * Simple defense: Damage is flat reduced by DEF+DEF2. Res is ignored.
- Dragon Breath / Water now also ignore Res
- Fixes #8419

Special thanks to everyone who helped testing all these skills to confirm this common rule.
