Upload bonus-map-pack to PPA

For some time, Wormux has a PPA. Currently, it consists of three
packages: 

      * wormux (Containing the code base for several architectures) 
      * wormux-data (Containing all the platform-unspecific stuff) 
      * wormux-servers (containing the game and index servers)

So how about introducing a new package wormux-bonusmaps, containg our
current bonus-maps.tar.bz2? That would give ubuntu-users an ability to
do a four-click-installation ( Software-store -> wormux-PPA ->
wormux-bonusmaps -> install).

Problem is probably, that in this case, the bonusmaps are installed
into /usr/share/wormux/map, probably causing the auto-removal of extra
maps in network game to disappear.

Devs, specially Iflo, what do you think?

I think it is a very good idea! :)

Well, I don't think that this feature has been coded. I have thought
about it several months ago, and the best way would have been to
exchange the list of maps, not to rely on from where the map is loaded.
