Masterserver and matches

• There are now conditions that keep the warmup happening for unlimited time until there is a sufficient amount of players to start the game with, which depends on the mode, player count and custom game settings, then the warmup time limit starts and players can ready up to start the match or the match will start once the warmup time limit ends (if a player leaves after the warmup time limit starts and there aren’t enough players yet, the warmup time will go back to infinite until more join)
• The masterserver is now faster to detect changes and situations where an extra player would be brought in and create a 6v5 are now rarer (still needs a complete fix)
