146 - update los if blocksview-objects are inserted in a map, not just when

171 - revamped, fixed and documented the server calendrics, also
172 tell users the current time and data, to improve awareness.
173 - implement proper wizlook flag and handling of wizlook, instead
174 of dumbly just clearing los once.
175 - speed up los code - it's now about 2-3 times as fast as the old one,
176 and has a smaller runtime variance.
177 - daylight/nightfall can now increase/decrease past the natural limit,
178 making them actually useful.

180 - implement a fast tiled map iterator and use it in LOS for a 20%
181 speedup, as well as in many other places.

186 as now obsolete protocol versions, simplying the code.
