Hooking buttons while touching a wall only pulls them a short distance

[wjt]

Description

In res://scenes/quests/lore_quests/quest_002/2_grappling_hook/grappling_hook_needles.tscn, wedge yourself into the corner and then try to hook a button:

This is with the keyboard but it's easier to reproduce with the gamepad.

In player_hook.gd _process_pulling() we are hitting this call to stop_pulling():

	character.velocity = player_distance.normalized() * pull_velocity * weight
	var player_collided := character.move_and_slide()

	if player_collided:
		if character.get_real_velocity().length_squared() <= stuck_speed * stuck_speed:
			stop_pulling() # <---

I don't quite follow the logic of the sections above, which special case weight != 0 and weight != 1. In this case the button is weightless, so weight == 0, so I don't quite follow why we are applying any velocity to the player at all.
