Bug tracker has been migrated to google code

I hope everyone likes the change.
Unfortunately, google tracker data API doesn't allow to preserve dates and submitters in the bugs and comments, so all the old bugs will have me as owner and poster of everything. But i've put dates and names into comment and bug bodies.
Please resubscribe to your bugs and feature requests by starring them.
