Bot Spawn Behavior

When starting a new game and adding bots, they do not appear at their spawn point. This can cause issues with "shooting gallery" map setups, or any other map setup where teams aren't meant to go to each others' spawns.
Steps to reproduce:
- Set up map as usual.
- Isolate each spawn with walls/barriers/etc. Do not design the map for objectives, only Team Deathmatch.
- Host game in Team Deathmatch. Add yourself to the team according to your designated spawn.
- Add bots. They all spawn next to you instead of at the spawn point.
I would argue that this use case should be supported, since it adds more gameplay options, and because there are blatantly obvious scenarios where you do not want opponents to be able to enter a team's spawn area, mainly as a spawn camping issue. For live players, this may require aggressive systems barring players from entering a designated spawn zone.
