[bf1942] BF2 Autobalance

So does this tweak fall into the "blacklistable" tweaks?  This is a great
idea IMO.  -[JiF]Mike

Yes...I'm pretty sure this worked for me tonight on my server - Nobody on my
squad ever got autoswitched. Here is the start of the onPlayerDeath handler.
p.getSquadId() returns 0 if they are not in a squad.

def onPlayerDeath(p, vehicle):           
    if not bf2.serverSettings.getAutoBalanceTeam(): return None   
    if p.isCommander(): return None
    if p.isSquadLeader(): return None
    if p.getSquadId() > 0: return None

    # dont use autobalance when its suicide/changes team
