Subject: /register: Optionally use the session profile nickname for the player's name
X-Git-Url: https://git.cworth.org/git?p=empires-server;a=commitdiff_plain;h=d1a58a5a8c2f30278dc002a38f2f540a914bc677

/register: Optionally use the session profile nickname for the player's name

This allows a UI to set a nickname once in the profile and then send
only the character name in the /register action.

It's still supported to set the name in the /register action as well.
