Roundup Tracker import code should detect if a remote Trac instance requires special old_trac handling #100

Comment by paulproteus:

Right now, the bugimporters code for Trac has an old_trac field. This bug tracks removing that field, and instead automatically detecting if a Trac instance is "old".

"Old" is defined as follows: Some Trac instances do not publish all the metadata about a bug on the bug page. For those Trac instances, which run a relatively old version of the Trac software, we have to go crawling a bug's RSS feed from the tracker to get hints about when it was created, etc.

It would be better if the TracTrackerModel contained no old_trac field, and instead we inferred at crawl time if a Trac instance is "old"-style.
