Support tossups that are all-power (e.g. "for 15 points") #277

An example of this that MODAQ doesn't handle correctly is tossup 12 from Packet 3 of 2018 Human Use of Human Beings

Seems feasible. It could look for the string "for \d+ points", but that won't work if we ever needed to support non-English packets and would be susceptible to edge cases since we don't prevent clues from having "for \d+ points" as part of a normal clue. You also have to be smart around handling superpowers so that you don't override the superpower.

This doesn't happen frequently in tournaments, so if someone wants to fix it, then they can, but I'm marking this as a low priority issue.
