MapGenerator (#34)

This generate maps following a simple structure

First we choose map size depending on the difficulty

we grind the edge with a random pattern so the map is not just a square

we pick a random open piece and try to make a piece out of it between a size of 1 to 3

and we do this in a loop until all open spaces are filled

this is not the best but it's efficient

known problem:

- We can have sometime a lot of small pieces
- We can have weird shape, for instance pieces that are only connected by corner

I think this is technically not a problem in the end. but this could be changed
