Introducing the new HotZone feature

The command:  hotzone

Imms can set up 'hot zones' being either ranges of rooms, levels and 
other restrictions on xp bonuses. 

We now have the ability to schedule them starting at a specific for 
a specific duration in advance and they will save over reboots.

You'll see a display like this:

  Name                  Bonus  Start Time           End Time             Min Max Notes
A Bonus XP Day          75.50% 2020-05-12-15:14:17  2020-05-13-15:14:17  0   50  


The very left column (before Name) will show 'A' for active or 'U' for 
upcoming. The rest of the columns are pretty self explanatory, but 
all system times are in 24 hour time based on the machine's timezone. 

The notes field will have information about special cases. Yes, we 
can actually make a bonus xp mud-wide for people who are from the 
FIWAR bear clan. We probably won't. But you never know!
