Improve SSCSM communication and /mrkr there

 `advmarkers` introduces the following chatcommands:
 
- - `/mrkr`: Opens a formspec allowing you to display or delete markers. If you give this command a parameter (`h`/`here`, `t`/`there` or co-ordinates), it will set your HUD position to those co-ordinates.
- - `/add_mrkr`: Adds markers. You can use `.add_mrkr x,y,z Marker name` to add markers. Adding a marker with (exactly) the same name as another will overwrite the original marker. If you replace `x,y,z` with `here`, the marker will be set to your current position, and replacing it with `there` will set the marker to the last `.coords` position.
+ - `/wp`, `/mrkr`: Opens a formspec allowing you to display or delete waypoints. If you give this command a parameter (`h`/`here`, `t`/`there` or co-ordinates), it will set your HUD position to those co-ordinates.
+ - `/add_wp`, `/add_mrkr`: Adds markers. You can use `.add_mrkr x,y,z Marker name` to add markers. Adding a marker with (exactly) the same name as another will overwrite the original marker.
  - `/mrkr_export`: Exports your markers to an advmarkers string. Remember to not modify the text before copying it. You can use `/mrkr_export old` if you want an export string compatible with older versions of the advmarkers CSM (it should start with `M` instead of `J`). This old format does **not** work with this mod, so only use it if you know what you are doing!
  - `/mrkr_import`: Imports your markers from an advmarkers string (`.mrkr_import <advmarkers string>`). Any markers with the same name will not be overwritten, and if they do not have the same co-ordinates, `_` will be appended to the imported one.
  - `/mrkrthere`: Alias for `/mrkr there`.
 
 If you die, a marker is automatically added at your death position, and will

+update the "there" position.
+
+### "Here" and "there" positions
+
+Both /wp and /add_wp accept "here"/"h" and "there"/"t" in place of
+co-ordinates. Using "here" will set the waypoint to your current position, and
+"there" will set it to the most recent co-ordinates that appear in chat (or
+your last death position).
