Relative & Absolute Paths to phpBB

This release fixes a few issues that were present when a forum install was in a vastly different directory, or on a different domain (or subdomain). A new variable has been introduced:

$wgPhpbbAuthAbsolutePath = '//www.domain.com/phpBB3/';

Which can be set to the absolute location of your phpBB installation. If this is not present, the extension will fall back to previously set variables, or will use the variables configured in your phpBB installation's "Server Settings".

Thank you to @phbaudin for assistance with this update.

New feature added! The ability to choose how your phpBB users will be logged into your MediaWiki installation. You can now place the following in your LocalSettings.php to set Mediawiki usernames to be the same as the phpBB ones.

$wgPhpbbAuthNameFormat = 'phpbb';

If you do not specify, the default MediaWiki naming convention is used, so it will not break any prior installations.

This is a minor version update. An additional check has been added to prevent possible bots (such as GoogleBot, and BingBot) from showing up as logged in. This may also clear up an issued reported #3 which seems to indicate that the extension is blocking search engine bots.

New release includes the ability to redirect back to MediaWiki after logging into phpBB.

Thank you to Ritchie333 for his contributions.

Likely to be the last release until phpBB or MediaWiki break something!
