Improved bugtracker

Dear players,

We have reworked the categories of the Mantis bugtracker. We hope that the bugtracker becomes a lot more usable this way. Furthermore, there are no "secret" categories any more. Every registered user can see all ongoing tasks. We encourage you to get involved with the now transparent development of Illarion.

Also, we rated all feature requests and sorted them into appropriate categories. With these changes, it will become much more easy for use and for developers to regard your wishes for the development of Illarion.
