Subject: Fix Anagrams: broadcast claim-end on word acceptance, remove game steal
X-Git-Url: https://git.cworth.org/git?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d1eca672e23f7924b2eb2e88ff028e6dcfcb2751;p=lmno-server

Fix Anagrams: broadcast claim-end on word acceptance, remove game steal

Broadcast a claim-end event after a word is accepted so clients properly
exit claim mode. Remove the _find_game_steal function (deferred for a
better approach later).
