 This patch adds a command

   play game {GameName} [SystemName]

 to the network interface which causes a MythGame game to be launched. It
 also modifies how myth_system functions to allow better killing of
 subprocesses which have spawned their own subprocesses (such as many
 mythgame games) and implements a mechanism by which whenever a jump-point
 is jumped to whilst a game is running (which can only really happen via
 the network interface) the game in question will be killed.
