High scores are overwritten after each playthrough #172

When finishing a level, only the score of that play-through is saved to the 
highscores file for that map. An existing score is lost.

For some odd reason, vm's from a fresh (1.1.5) build don't have this problem. 
Oddly enough, no code changes have been made that could affect this.

When compiled as qvm, the problem persists even in 1.1.5

The problem is caused by sv_pure being set to 1. The highscore file is outside of a pk3 file and can therefore not be read when the game tries to load existing scores. Setting sv_pure to 0 fixes this. Will try to see if sv_pure can always be forced to 0 in EntityPlus.
