fc5c2788a1 Put the client into pause mode when loading save games.
This prevenits the worlds from advancing during client connect. The
player won't get attacked by monsters or hurt by the environment. Note
that in baseq2 there're still 4 world frames processed by the game and
100 world frames if the player enters a level that he or she already
visited. Both aren't a big problem, 4 world frames are hardly enough
for monsters starting to attack and in most levels the starting area
can't be reached by monsters and is free from environmental effects.

Pause mode is only entered for local servers and only in single player
mode. This should prevent problems with coop and deathmatch games.

The behaviour can be controlled by `cl_loadpaused`:
* `0`: Do not enter pause mode, Vanilla Quake I behaviour.
* `1`: Enter pause mode at load and leave it at first regular server
       frame.
* `2`: Enter pause mode at load, never leave it. The player must leave
       it by hand.

This was requested in issue #417.

81a36bb3ad Add 'dec' and 'inc' operations.
'dec' decrements and 'inc' increments a given cvar either by 1 or a
given value.

The code was taken from q2pro.

This closes issue #414.

66ca44e040 Add new cvar operation 'reset' and 'resetall'.
cvar operations are special commands that allow the programmatic
manipulation of cvar values. 'reset' resets a given cvar to it's
default value, e.g. `reset r_mode' would reset `r_mode` to `4`.
'resetall' resets all known cvar with the exception of `game`.

The code is based upon q2pro.

This is part of issue #414.
