Set up a permanent official game server #163

Description

@dripton

We need an official main game server somewhere. It should be pre-populated in the Connect dialog as an option.

Amazon EC2 micro instances are free for one year, then about $15 per month after that, but I'm not sure if a micro instance would be responsive enough. (They have 613 MB memory, which is plenty, but only allow short bursts of CPU usage.) Small instances are about $63 per month, more than I want to pay.

Rackspace Cloud 256 MB instances are $11 per month. I have a server that's been running stresstests for 9 hours (85 6-AI games) about that's using 118 MB VIRT, 101 MB RES, so I think 256 MB is probably enough. 512 MB instances are $22 per month. Though I'm not sure if that's enough memory to also move Jenkins there.
