  -- added code to detect the right w3routeip if is set to 0.0.0.0

[LADDERS]:
  -- added .dat/.xml ladder output for STAR/SEXP/W2BN rating based ladder

  structs

[MISC]:
  -- updated autoupdate with latest clients versions

  broadcasting message (ex /ann) and having any connection different than 
  irc/telnet/bot/bnet (ex d2cs etc)

  -- adjusted /whois command to be more like on battle.net
  -- massivly renamed configuration files so each has an extension
  -- added scripts/pvpgn_hash.inc.php so everyone who needs has a php-
     implementation of the commonly used passhash algorithm

     not propperly displaying tmpOP on initial channel join

     integers for comparations instead of strings
  -- changed almost every place where sending username to send the logged in 
  username (if differs in case) than the account username (this fixes some bugs 
  like modifying some account data when logged in with different case and also 
  gets us to closer Battle.net behaivour)
