Freenet 0.7.5 build 1372 (biggish build)

Freenet 0.7.5 build 1372 is now available. Please upgrade, it will be mandatory May 11th, and makes 1370 mandatory immediately. Changes include:
- Significant further fixes to the RecentlyFailed code. This *should* improve performance of the mechanism itself, squashing more requests for over-popular keys and thus reducing the average time taken for failed requests for chat keys, and *may* also fix download stalling problems that have been reported.
- Small changes to load limiting. We will now use an estimate of how many requests we can run safely based on a target time between sending blocks given our limited bandwidth, as well as the usual output bandwidth liability limits. This should only cause rejections very rarely, because the limits are reduced a bit from 1369, which introduced it (but didn't use them for actual rejections).
- Minor improvements to the web interface, including a cleanup button for removing all finished downloads, and to the rabbit-hole theme.
- Clean up bogus newlines in noderefs. This is not 100% reliable, but is only needed when noderefs are exchanged as text e.g. over IRC; long term I expect most users will exchange them as files.
- Keep full noderefs for our friends, and fetch them if we don't have them. Make them available on the friends page.
- Minor fix for node to node file transfers, append .part to the file until it's finished.
- Translation updates to Dutch, German and Swedish, and some improvements to english strings.
- Better mechanism for changing cooldown parameters, will be used by chat plugins which poll lots of identities to poll some of them at different intervals.
- Config changes related to default directories. Backwards compatible, but not forwards - if you revert to 1371 or earlier you may need to edit your config file.

Please upgrade! Thanks.
