BGE: This patch adds a character wrapper (similar to the already implemented vehicle wrapper) to control character physics options. Currently supported options are:

  * jump() -- causes the character to jump
  * onGround -- specifies whether or not the character is on the ground
  * gravity -- controls the "gravity" that the character physics uses for the character

More options could be added (such as jump speed, step height, make fall speed, max slope, etc).
