Show the breakers and fixer for a project

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Shows the fixer of a broken build (if one has volunteerd to fix the build).
If you use the latest builds of CCNet, it will also show the breakers of a
project.

The code is compliant with other CC, if they do not supply this information,
it is discarded (empty string used).

New patch with tests on the latest source (v1.2)
previous patch was on source 0.7

The category element is also added, but not used for the moment,
this will be used for a project filter.

I think it would be good if the message/build breaker text was smaller than the
project name, do you think?

maybe, suppose there are 5 people breaking a build, the message can indeed be 
long,
but the idea is to easily see who broke a build, and adjusting the font size 
for the
message may make it unreadable. Or did you have another solution in mind?

Yeah, I'll have to see how it works in our situation. Maybe it's best how it 
is. Or
maybe just have the message in a different color or something.

Thanks for the patch, by the way.
The other question about how we should implement this is: 

Do we want to show "multiple" people breaking builds?

Only 1 person breaks the build at 1 time, to my mind. 
Any subsequent commiters are just victims ;-) Or do you mean something else by 
"5
people breaking a build"

Hi
about the multiple breakers : that depends on your setup.
If you do CI, there will be generally only 1 person breaking a build.
but if suppose you only do nightly builds, you aggregate all modifications of 
that
day, and so there can be multiple people who contributed. Hopefully only one of 
them
broke the build, but it is nice to now who modified the code, because these 
people
are the ones knowing what the changed (they should know anyway;-) )
Also for the CI setup, if someone else besides the breaker wants to fix a 
build, but
fails to do so, their both names are now shown. Hopefully this clears it out.
