[cod] variable save

[Caleb Stephens]

I'm just talking about the basic configs ... nothing extremely custom.

We rotate HQ, SAB, SD.  But, we only have a 5 second bomb plant for SD, 5
min SAB rounds with a 3 round limit.  But I've manually done all these via
RCON (changes via RCON don't automatically write out to
fs_basepath/main/<config>.

Rather than try and remember all of the settings I've adjusted mealtime
during game play, I figured there was an easier way just to export the
current config. Then update fs_basepath/main/<config> with those.
