Message:

Moderators: First pass at per-forum moderators.

This commit introduces a powerful feature commonly found in other popular forum software that has been on our wishlist for nearly 9 years. It includes the following changes:

• Custom forum-mod taxonomy for assigning user nicenames to forum IDs
• Associated functions for defining capabilities, labels, etc...
• New capability filters for ensuring forum moderators have the ability to moderate forums even without the moderator role assignment
• New option for toggling the entire feature on/off (on by default)

Props jmdodd, netweb. See #459.
