interact with /countdown

Describe the problem

Currently when you do /pull only addon users (BigWigs, DBM,..) see it, although shadowlands introduced a native /countdown.

For more interoperability with non-addon users it would be nice to send a proper /countdown to other players and additionally intercept incoming countdowns to display them as normal BigWigs pull including the countdown bar.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

receiving:

  1. do /countdown 5
  2. notice the missing bigwigs bars

sending:

  1. invite a player without any raiding addons into a raid
  2. do /pull 5
  3. the other player won't receive a pull timer/countdown

What version of BigWigs are you using? (Stating 'latest' is not useful)

196 (0b243a0)

Do you have an error log of what happened?

Any additional information? (example: WoW language if not English)

This won't happen until the countdown API improves. At the very least, anonymity of the broadcaster needs resolved. Until then, we're more likely to disable this functionality in BigWigs.

Countdown was never improved so if a BigWigs user tries to send one it will now be intercepted and redirected to a BigWigs pull timer.
