Player-driven bounties

[lekeno]

It would be interesting to allow players to place a bounty on a known outlaw, and allow enforcer to be rewarded for their efforts. This would also create interesting in-game opportunities, e.g. motivation for bounty hunting, cashing-in events with escorts, etc.

Some ideas and open questions:

• Bounties can only be put on known outlaws.
• Bounties can only be put by cmdrs with positive Karma (TBD: >0 or >100).
• Would be useful to have a notion of how trustworthy a Cmdr is (i.e. how likely is it that they will pay the reward).
• Reveal the name of the commander(s) who placed the bounty upon fulfillment? Or don't hide it in the first place?
• Allow to specify conditions, e.g. video proof required, screenshot required?
• Allow multiple bounties from different commanders.
• Should Bounties be a one-off affair or should there be permanent bounties for each kill?

Commands:

• !bounties to get a list of outlaws with active bounties + last sighted info
• !bounty <cmdr_name or target> ## (in million credits)
• Show signal(s) about active bounties in the realtime alerts
