DoTimer

17 - PLAYER_TOTEM_UPDATE handler buggy for new totem bar

When using the shaman multi-drop Call of <foo> spells, DoTimer 4.3.6 throws Lua errors as reported by many people.  Here's an example:
http://wow.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/do-timer.aspx?CommentPage=2#554277

A patch against 4.3.6 is attached.  The indentation of the patch may be a little wonky.

I'll also try to upload a copy of the complete file, so that end-users have something they can drop in place over their current copy until the fix is applied and a new version released.

    Here are instructions to shaman players using DoTimer 4.3.6. You need to read these instructions carefully. If they don't make sense to you, get help from a friend who knows how to use a computer; I am not your personal tech support.

    1) Download the file "DoTimer_core.lua" above.

    2) Open your WoW folder. If you don't know where it is, figure it out.

    3) Inside that folder, go to the Interface\AddOns\DoTimer\DoTimer folder. Yes, the name DoTimer is repeated.

    4) In there should be half a dozen or so files. One of them is called core.lua. If you do not see this file, you are in the wrong place and need to start over.

    4b) Double-check which folder you are looking at! Asheyla has files called "core.lua" all over the place in the main DoTimer tree. If you replace the wrong one, you are boned and it is your own fault.

    5) Copy the downloaded DoTimer_core.lua file over the DoTimer\DoTimer\core.lua file. You can (and should) make a backup first in case you screw up.

    Restart the game and go.
