Subject: [PATCH] eqcompare: skip paperdoll owners in showalways mode
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Comparing an equipped slot's tooltip against itself is pointless — every
delta is zero. Skip that case when `showalways=1`. Shift-hover still
forces the comparison unconditionally.
