#3138: Add plugin trac + svn

-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
The current situation with plugins is rather confusing for the user: many
repos, not all of them available all the time, often no easy way to
understand ahow they work.
For developers the situation is also not optimal: it is difficult to
notifiy bugs, easy to miss them, and difficult to fix problems in plugins
other than its own.
I suggest to put all them on a trac (either a separate instance or a brach
of the main QGIS trac).
A set of useful functions would then be:
* a script for automatic packaging afer any commit; this will solve the
frequent problems with plugins with wrong XML data being asked to be
upgraded any time, and make the dev life easier
* a rating system, so users can tell which ones to trust more
* download statistics, for the same purpose
* an info page, better if open to coments
