FEEDBACK: Status effects are calculated before fainting evaluations

When a Pokémon reaches 0 HP, calculations are still performed to determine if the defending card will be afflicted with a status effect such as paralysis, sleep, etc.

Status effects should be calculated after an initial check if the Pokémon has fainted, followed by an additional damage stage for status effects and a final HP check.
