Techreport number & parentheses. #19

Dear Marco, I'm not sure if you originally set out to emulate the behavior of the @techreport entry type. The current layout is almost correct, except that the "number" field should not be in parentheses.

Specifically, consider the entry:

@techreport{BKM95, author={Julien Basch and Sanjeev Khanna and Rajeev Motwani}, title={On Diameter Verification and {B}oolean Matrix Multiplication}, number={STAN-CS-95-1544}, institution = {Department of Computer Science, Stanford University}, year={1995} }

Then plain/bibtex produces the output bibtex-techreport whereas biblatex/trad-plain produces the output biblatex-techreport

The issue depends on my fault. I forgot to define a new bibliography driver for "report" and some other minor changes.

The parens can be remove by

\DeclareFieldFormat[techreport]{number}{#1}

The comma-issue is fixed.
