Adds "linked_to_centcomm" variable to maps.

- Obviously, by default, this will be one.
- Adds new event where the link with central command is broken for
- Admins can make or break the link with Central command Indefinitely with the secrets panel
- You cannot do the following while the link is broken: Call the shuttle / Recall the shuttle / Fax Central command / Recieve messages from Central command / Send messages to Central Command / Call or Send the Cargo Shuttle
- An admin may send a message to the crew even when the link is broken, but he will be prompted first asking if he is sure.
- Blob alerts ignore whether or not the link with central command is broken
