Adding NPCs to maps

Added to hammer are 2 test NPC entities, these should work on any map however their functionality is limited. To ensure correct operation with your map, i have created a checklist of things that need to be done.

NPC checklist:

• Your map needs to be compiled with the latest version of empires (currently unreleased)
• Your map needs a navigation mesh created, see https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Navigation_Meshes

NPC Entity List:

npc_human_nf : A sample NF npc

npc_human_be : A sample BE npc
