CreateMapMarker
Places a marker - a point only the editor and the mode know - on the level.
Players never see a marker; the editor draws it, and the mode finds it by its tag with GetMapMarkers: spawn points, a race’s
gates, where a merchant stands - placed and moved by the admins in the editor, read by the mode.
