The death markers setting places beacons where players die so they can retrieve items or equipment that was left behind.
I have tested the PR in-game using 2 players, swim out a bit from the lifepod and use the kill command or suffocate, beacon should only appear for the dying player. Then when that player goes within 20m of the beacon or disconnects from the server the beacon should disappear. The beacon can also be hidden from the HUD through the PDA. Ready for CW reviews.
Completes issue #2155

I haven't tested this yet but a general question of does this still try and spawn a beacon even if the person is on land, if this is desired then does it spawn and roll around potentially not being in the correct place

Yeah so when it spawns on land it actually falls through the land to the water below. To combat this, I set the gravitational constant in the beacon's WorldForces component to 0 so gravity has no effect on it and added above-water drag because floating point error gave the object a tiny velocity in a random direction causing it to drag. it works on land now. Tested in-water again too

Instead of using beacons have just switched to using blank gameobjects and attaching the PingInstance component. tested IG again

Updated this for new launcher and tested IG. Needs new CW reviews because some changes were made and its possible I goofed the rebase but I don't think I did

Apart from those changes, a test session revealed the PR to be working (so we'll be able to merge it after that)
