This patch addresses issues concerning a1796ed71f:
Allow for a more elegant implementation of observer flares.
And still display flares even if the sender is lagging behind:
Split off flares from simulation commands.
Remove the new, problematic 'observer commands' entirely.
Provide an engine function 'SendNetworkFlare' to the JS interface.
-> which sets off the (pretty ordinary) transmission process.
Add a new type of net messages exclusively for flares
-> contains the flare's position and its sender's GUID.
