Add support for indefinite tournaments #21

I'm seeking to create a challenge based on this framework. This issue was mentioned in #19 already. In the Formic Functions implementation the need for a dynamic amount of games played per tournament was ignored, and the tournament length simply limited to 50. The planned challenge of mine will most likely use a similar, dynamic tournament termination condition. I can't let the reference implementation not stick to the specification, so I need this functionality. Ideally, the new tournament type would be similar to the "brawl" and would visually look like this:

Optionally:

And internally:

I'm willing to look into this myself once I get the actual game up and running (and if I manage to get anywhere I'll contribute back so Formic Functions can finally be fully properly implemented).
