This PR adds a feature to QBReader to stop reading the question at the powermark. My quiz bowl team and I have found this to be helpful during our study sessions/practices with a real reader, so I've implemented it for QBReader so that we could use it during unofficial online practices.

The "stop on power" checkbox implementation is generally the same as something like toggling rebuzzes. The only real logic that was affected was the reading and the scoring. For scoring, it is implemented such that any correct answer is 10 points, and an incorrect answer is the same as usual (-5 before the question is finished reading, 0 once the question is finished reading). Because of this, any non-powermarked question (if "Powermarks only" isn't enabled) will still be scored and read the same.

This feature has been implemented and tested in both solo tossup rooms and multiplayer rooms.
