[bug] LCD manager: textPanel.GetPublicTitle() does not populate except on newly placed #189

Seems to be an issue in IMyTextPanel.GetPublicTitle() only being available to modAPI on newly placed LCDs on Dedicated servers. Existing LCDs will apparently not return anything useful to our scan code. The issue does not seem to occur if a player plays single player offline.

IMyTextPanel.CustomName does /appear/ to still be working as LCDs can still detect [economy] but not the data display keywords from Title.

Workaround: also scan Customname for the keywords. This still seems to be available with existing LCDs.

workaround seems only solution
