[outdated] Handle to target/source tag

Hey,

My contribution to the wishlist will be the desire of either a handle to target and source units or additional parameters which could help me achieve the same goal.

Problem:
Getting additional information from whom/what killed you/you've killed, specifically I will use this for PvP purposes where I'd like to know the alliance, alliance war rank and class of the target and source.

The only current way of resolving this information is through a "unitTag", which can only be obtained by actual targetting, which becomes a problem if you kill/die by the use of caltrops for instance without ever seeing your opponent.

Suggestion:
- Add unitTag to GetKillingAttackerInfo()
- Add unitTag(s) to the EVENT_COMBAT_EVENT callback

As I already stated, there's no current accurate way of resolving this information and I'd love to see it added.
