0003019: Simple gamemode rotation and voting
It would be nice to be able to callvote different gamemodes.

sv_gamemode_rotation - Server will randomly select a game mode from this list when switching maps. Empty means that it won't switch game modes at all.
sv_gamemode_voteoptions - A list of game mode options that players can vote on. This can be different from the game mode rotation options.

I'm not married to these cvar names. I suppose they would be a simple, comma-delimited list of game modes.

This would be a simple gamemode switcher.

- No per-gamemode dmflags.
- No map-specific disallows.
- No magic lumps that it obeys.
- It's on the server owner to not pick stupid combinations, like coop/ctf or whatever.

Something that MIGHT be up for debate - what happens when you vote for a new game mode? It can't apply the new game mode without switching the map. I think that the game mode should be applied and the map should be reloaded immediately, as to follow the principle of least surprise.
