[Shine] Lock Teams

Prevent players from joining the marine and alien team in an ongoing match using !lock and !unlock in the chat.

You need to add Shine permissions for your admins to use sh_lockteams and sh_unlockteams commands.

This does not enforce a specific team size automatically, there are a lot of scenarios apart from player count that can screw a game, some examples: a high skilled player joining at the same time with a rookie, a match that started as captains and was agreed no hot joining till it ends, you don't want to put a password on but only allow to spectate, and so on.

It's only a manual admin tool to prevent the ruining of matches by people who don't read the server rules or don't care about balance.

Binding the commands is highly recommended for fast usage while in game, example:
bind F2 sh_lockteams
bind F3 sh_unlockteams
