Default Bug in server processing of OP_GMZoneRequest

I found a bug in the way the server processes a /zone command. (This doesn't apply to emu's #zone, just the /zone command you can use when your GM flag is on.)

In my example, /zone Natimbi would take me to Erudin instead.

Packetcollect output for both a /zone Erudnext and /zone Natimbi:

*** This packet was generated by /zone erudnext

The cause of the problem pretty much jumps out at ya: the server's only looking at one byte (the 0x1 when it should be looking at 2 bytes. Evidently with the GoD zones, they started needing to use 2 bytes, and Natimbi happens to have its first byte as 0x18 too.
