[LUA] PatchMap functionality required about s25client HOT 3 OPEN

Can't we just distribute the patched map files? Not sure if allowing file modifications from Lua is a good idea...

Well, @Flow86 asked @ottml to remove the patched map files in some PR - thats where this patch idea is from. I'm fine with distributing the changed original files, but not sure if we are allowed to do so.

I think it's safe to change the files after they have been loaded, but not on the harddrive.

@Flow86 @Flamefire since the PR #1628 might be merged soon, we should decide on this one. At least two of the LUA scripts included will not work correctly. On the first map 7 players are loaded by rttr but 6 have invalid positions, I think on the sixth map, one player position is invalid, thus the game doesn't start.
I'd personally just include the files, but not sure if we are legally allowed. But finally having the campaign screen with the original campaign but with 2 maps not working doesn't feel right regarding user expectation :-/
