[bf1942] Anti cheat tool

[Jon Wolberg]

Well as far as cheating goes, were working on something special over at
ECGN....

We setup a XML stats page, and found out that the XML logs the xyz
coordinates of each killer and their corresponding victim.  Each map has the
fog distance stored inside it as a #, so, we take each set of coordinates,
and if the kill is continuously over the foglimit throughout the round, said
person is cheating.

In the next version of the stats program, it will log that persons cd hash,
and we will code it so if someone consistently has so many kills out of the
fog range, it will autoban them :)
