Migration needed. Refactored the config.configValue model into server.ServerConfig (that's what the config model were used for anyway). The new model can handle arbitrary data structures through pickle. Run ./manage.py migrate to sync your database with the new setup.

Moved Connect screens (the text screen first seen when connecting) away from the database and into a module in gamesrc/world. This module allows for conveniently adding new connect screens on the fly. More than one screen in the given module will mean a random screen is used.
