Map editor can now be used to set location based actions. The scripts
have to be located in schedules/obj/ inside the data directory.

The next step will be to extend schedules/char/actions.py to actually
launch the action assigned to a location. Then I can start writing
some useful actions (like the speech bubble thing), which will likely
require some additions to the engine first.

Mapedit might also require some additional changes to be more useable:
an indicator which location has an action assigned and a way to clear
an action again.
