* General concept:
* Unity (well, the version used by VRChat) only supports up to 4 bones per vertex.
* Therefore I use this basic algorithm to generate the weights for bat-like wings
* by limiting the bones per vertex to 2 from the body side and 2 from the finger side.
* The hard edges in the weight map are then smoothed and all weights normalized.
* Then the weight maps are exported to PNG images that can be imported to Blender
* using some plugins.
*
* It works for me but I can't promise that it works well for anyone else. Use at your own risk!
*
* The code below generates the weights for the wing membrane between body and last finger.
* It shouldn't be too hard to adapt for the other wing membranes
