[Wishlist] Area, close, melee, ranged damage types & resistances, and ½ damage resistances

[witchydiana]

Heya! Ever be a bit forgetful and in the flow while running a swarm combatant? I sure have been! I'd love for my monsters to be able to properly resist half damage coming from a melee or ranged attack and be vulnerable to area and close attacks without manual intervention on my part. I'm sure there are other use cases than this admittedly niche little rules element, but I'm a DM first and this is what immediately comes to mind.

Half damage resistances would also be useful for the usecase outlined in #360
