Review request for Viewer.


Summary
-------

STORM-954 review had 2 patches, the second of which was approved in review 
process but the first patch is what went into viewer-development.  This is that 
second patch again. This patch modifies getAvatars() in llworld.cpp.  Note this 
patch becomes more important if/when avatar distances may be displayed to users 
in the viewer as it corrects for map data being incorrect above 1024m by using 
the viewer characters list to get avatar position if known and then falling 
back on the map data for the avatars that are beyond view range.  This patch is 
in the repository 
https://bitbucket.org/Twisted_Laws/viewer-development-storm-954


This addresses bug storm-954.
    http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/storm-954

Testing
-------

Proper testing with and without this patch is to have 2 or more avatars at 1050 
height with other avatars on the ground under you, and the NearmeRange (debug 
setting) set to 4096 and the sort order in the Nearby avatars panel set to sort 
by distance. (A busy region like a sandbox, is a good place to test.) Without 
this patch, a nearby avatar will not necessarily be displayed before avatars 
that are further away.  With this patch, the avatar standing closest to you 
should show up as the first in the list.   


Thanks,

Twisted
