[hlds_linux] CS:S Demos still broken

There has been a bug in the TF2 server reputation trend calculation. Previously, it would only report that the reputation was either "slightly upward" or "downward fast." It will be fixed in the next update, to properly show five different levels: up fast, up slow, steady, down slow, and down
