Request: a new event

on_player_used_capsule
Called when player uses a capsule.
Contains

• player_index :: uint
• item :: string: Name of the used capsule.
• position :: Position (Optional): Where the capsule is thrown to. It is nil if capsule action type is not "throw".

Would be handy to replace the approach of creating dummy entity + on_trigger_created_entity + surface.find_entity to find the player who used a capsule.
