DPVP: Rethink zone IDs/names #22

Description

@HunterZ

Zone IDs are supposed to be unique identifiers, but DPVP allows these to be optionally controlled in the config file, which sickness0666 pointed out is problematic in the case of monuments that can have multiple instances on the same map.

Meanwhile, all zones are named simply "DynamicPVP", which HoRRoRiST pointed out is not very helpful if you're working directly with Zone Manager etc.

I'm thinking something like this might be better:

  • Zone Name: Make this something like "DynamicPVP:[:location|parent]", and possibly allow it to be configurable (which precludes differentiation)
  • Zone ID: Remove configurability, and make this be "DynamicPVP:". Ensure that it is globally unique. Use this for orphaned zone cleanup instead of using the zone name

Would need to migrate the zone ID config setting to zone name, and hope that people don't complain too much.
