new variables row - eqemu version

[Rhodan]

While dabbling with VB and the EQEmu database it occured to me that there is no way for an app to know which version of EQEmu the database is for.

This occured to me because I was thinking of having "profiles" that would change how a utility worked based on the version of EQEmu - for instance, walkspeed was depricated a while back so newer EQEmu installations don't have it - but someone running an older version would.

I know we can all add whatever we want but, it'd be nice if there were a standard.

You're not going to freak out and start hatched murdering nuns in your town because of all these junk data in the database, are you? ~runs~

Actually, in VB6 you can return the table schema, and then branch off from there. I did find that backwards compat. was just too likely to cause bugs and I pulled the plug on 0.6 db versions. In the past (~0.7.0) schema changes occured faster than you could imagine.
