Allows for different usergroups to have different 'weights' when voting in a poll. A usergroup with a weight of 5 would have 5 times the voting power of a usergroup with a weight of 1. Weighted Polls are optional, and in addition to regular polls.

Based on Hambil's first Weighted Polls (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=117379) engine which is now obsolete, this one is way more efficient, have less queries, and is easier to manage in permissions.

A good usage for this feature is when you have Elections, Votes on Who's Hot or Not, etc... You then give your more representative members a higher weight in polls.
