Added new BillboardGui properties for controlling scaling.

Errors in MarketplaceService/PromptPurchaseFinished and MarketplaceService/PromptGamePassPurchaseFinished will cause isPurchase/wasPurchase to be set to false. This arg will be checked on RCC automatically. The client is rate limited to a rate based on how fast the purchase prompt could be interacted with.

Places should not grant one-time benefits based solely on these two remote events. As mentioned, there are cases where wasPurchased could be changed to false. Further, the server verification of wasPurchased only checks that the user owns the gamepass – not that the user just now purchased it. Gamepasses can also be purchased outside of the game. Places should use DataStore to determine that a one-time benefit has already been granted.
