We need to support decreasing the number of points for a challenge as more people score it.

We supposedly already support this, but we should test that and fix it when it inevitably doesn't.

Currently, this will absolutely hammer core because it will trigger all shell clients to re-request the challenge every time it is solved.

@NicholasG04's solution is to add a new websocket message which already contains the updated score. This will still hurt core, but not nearly as hard as every client requesting all details every time there's a solve.
