Prevent escorts from spawning when player is teleported into dungeon

This is in relation to quests that teleport the player in the middle of a dungeon, for example Doomelf and Celestial metaclass characters after finishing the starting dungeon. Escorts shouldn't be generated immediately when you're teleported into that dungeon, especially in the Celestial case because you're fighting a boss as soon as you enter. It also doesn't really make sense for the escort to be right next to you when you spawn in the middle of a dungeon level.

If it's not possible to reassign the escort to a different level, then it should follow the same behavior as when the escort doesn't spawn immediately because the path to the portal is obstructed. The escort would just spawn the next time you enter the level.

That sounds like part of what my Escort Rescheduling addon tries to fix. Although I hadn't noticed that Doomelf characters did that too; I'd better go check to make sure we cover that case… :?
