onMinimapPing event

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi, me and my friend is working on a teammate AI for our master thesis. Today, 
a month into the project, we noticed there is no onMinimapPing event, or at 
least we didn't find one; a bit unfortunate but we're the once to blame for not 
checking that at the start.

What we would like is a onMinimapPing(int playerId, const BWAPI::Tileposition& 
position); event. This would return where on the map the player pinged. We want 
this making the player able to create attack, drop, and other commands with 
specific target locations.

This will probably take a while to implement. Although we would want the 
feature around the 7th of April, we understand that we cannot make any demands 
and that you have other issues to focus on.

Therefore, we thought of implementing this feature ourselves if it's not too 
hard; although looking through the code, it was a bit hard to grasp where 
changes had to be made, and how.

Any help and suggestions are appreciated, especially if clues about files we 
need to change. Even help in form of "This can not be implemented in time, you 
better change your plans" :)
