Threads are marked as new (containing new posts) but user is always redirected to first posts in thread

[GoogleCodeExporter]

User that sees that there are new posts in thread (since his last visit)
should be redirected directly to new posts. 
Currently user is always redirected to first post in thread.

Proposed patch is attached.

Use cases:
1. Anonymous user visits thread
 1.1 System shows first post in thread

2. Authenticated user visits completly new thread (started by someone else)
 2.1 System shows first post in thread

3. Authenticated user visits thread that he has already seen, but now this
thread has new posts added by the others
 3.1 System shows first post that was added since user's last visit

4. Authenticated user visits thread that he has already seen before - no
new posts has been added since user's last visit
 4.1 System shows latest post in thread
