Migration of source code distribution to SourceForge.

New feature: special pages Special:DataTablePages and Special:DataTableData
New feature: magic word #lastdata:
Enhancement: datatable_data is joind with page so that the page where data has been entered becomes available
Modification: #data: invoked with no columns and no template does not display anything, but saves data for usage by #lastdata:
Modification: in #data:, the table name is compared using the like operator, so it may contain % and _.

Upgrade to MW 1.13.3: data now invokes Parser::replaceVariables, otherwise templates are not replaced.
Enhancement: now using NewRevisionFromEditComplete to update data also when importing articles.

Separated saving data from displaying data.
Introduced use of RevisionImportComplete hook.
Use ArticleDelete hook instead of ArticleDeleteComplete hook. The latter does not work (any more with MW 1.11?).

Introduced the class parameter to specify a table class, and the <head>..<head/> syntax to specify a table header.
Introduced the <template> tag to specify a template inline.
Eliminated the feature of lines starting with '#' being sent verbatim to the parser
