(svn r21399) -Change/Feature/Fix [FS#4284]: perform the compression of savegames to send to the client asynchroniously. This will reduce the lag of the other clients to the time it takes to make the memory dump and it will speed up downloading the map as the download starts earlier (possibly with a slightly lower bandwidth due to slow compression). This should also fix the lag message people get when the savegame compression takes more than a few seconds.
