Patch to locate hosts on status map in a fast way (complete)

[Ethan Galstad]

I'll add this patch with a few minor mods to CVS tonight.  Mainly, 
I'll be removing the hardcoded layout type in the link.  That way the 
statusmap method used will be whatever the user has configured in the 
CGI config file.

Not sure if this patch will stay in or not.  This feature used to be 
in the code in the NetSaint days (I don't recall which version), but 
people complained about too many items on the screen in the overview 
window.
