Summary: BZFS API: Make players Observer

Initial Comment:
A new function in the BZFS API which puts player into
observer (or observers into tanks).
This function should overide observer slot limits, have
plugins check for avaible observer slots if neccesary 
(or add an argument which does it for the plugins)

this would also fulfil item:
"* instead of kicking laggy players, they should be
made observers unless there are no observer slots left
(then kick)."

in the TODO list


I found this missing when trieng to write a plugin,
which is now on hold until this is implented or denied
