HOTFIX:
Reverted a 'fix' which unfortunately created excessive spam.
For now, you may notice a skipping in the locations, this is only a text output issue.
In the backend it's navigating to all of the pre-defined locations as it should.

Enhancements
- Added SafeMode location setting for each Grind
- Updated INI handling
-- added ExitMode to INI if missing (default: taskquit)
-- added SafeMode defaults for each Grind (default: 0)

Resolved defects
- Fixed death notice to not complain if you were bound in GMM
- Fixed brute force auto accepting set up
- Fixed location numbers, no more skipping numbers
