author_file - determine the author for a given object

string author_file (string file);

This routine is only used if PACKAGE_MUDLIB_STATS is used.

This function must exist in the master object.  It is called by the
author statistic functions in the driver to determine what author a
given object should be associated with.  This is totally arbitrary and
up to the mudlib designers wishes.  It should be noted that the author
that the object is assigned to will receive "credit" for all of the
objects behavior (errors, heart_beats, etc).
