Feature request: add ingame location as message variable

See original GitHub issue

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. The current way the “Busy” message is implemented only lets you tell others that you are busy, but they have no way of knowing how long they’ll have to wait, based on the players location for example. This often causes people to look for a different and more readily available trade.

Describe the solution you’d like It would be awesome if something like {Location} and/or {LocationCategory} could be added to the message variables, so a message like “I'm busy right now in {LocationCategory} ({Location}) - I'll send you a party invite soon.” could be set, which would give others the possibility to estimate how long they’d have to wait.

{LocationCategory} ({Location}) could then be filled with for example Mapping (Iceberg Map) Lab (Uber Lab) Delve (Delve Depth 123) Heist (Contract: Records Office) Questing (The Chamber of Sins Level 2) Hideout (Alpine Hideout) …
