Server Administration:

- Fixed problem where maplist entries contain unwanted whitespace, and move invalid maplist entries to a separate 'BadMaps' list,instead of just deleting them
- Fixed bug where the advertised game was wrong after switching gametypes, but only for the startup gametype
- Fixed bug with password being removed from URL, during non-seamless travel on the same server
- Fixed bug where the current game profiles mutators would be carried over into other gametypes
- Added 'MapReplayLimit' to UTMapList; this overrides the same value in UTMapListManager, unless set to -1
- Added code to trim down the size of server details results when they become too large, fixes problem where servers would not be advertised
- Adjusted vote code to end vote rounds early, when all players have voted, and to switch map immediately instead of respecting the 'EndTimeDelay' and 'RestartWait' settings
- In endgame votes, forcibly extend the first vote round by 16 seconds (i.e. the time it takes for the vote menu to popup)
- Added admin-only buttons to the vote menu, which allow admins to force a winning vote - Fixed non-seamless travel client timeout disconnects. - Now consider server "pure" with same rules as achievements (custom maps, characters, and Epic mutators + webadmin allowed).
- Adjusted mutator voting to properly account for mutators in the game profile settings (both added and excluded mutators)

- Possible fix for darkmatch memory leak.
- Added refshadercache to patch, so titan content will have shaders compiled.
