function casetracker_xmlrpc_new_case in Case Tracker 5

XML-RPC handler; creates a new case based on incoming values.

The XML-RPC client is responsible for passing a $data array that is a valid Drupal $node, with all the relevant keys created (if this is an event case, event keys must exist; if CCK or Flexinode, admin-created keys must exist and have values, etc.). $data is passed directly to node_save() without validation/modification. This DOES force knowledge of the $node structure onto the XML-RPC client, but allows much more flexibility (on the client end, which can decide if an item should be published, promoted, etc., etc., etc.).

@todo We should at least check that the passed node type is one of our valid case tracker node types, and/or check for other case-related values (like status IDs and so forth). Who wants to fund that, HmMMmM?
