Group Forum

This is a bit of glue to link reader groups to forums. In order to make access control simple and expressible in SQL, it sets up a simple belongs_to :group relationship in the forum and then cascades it to topics and posts.

(this is achieved by calling has_group and gives_group_to :topics, plus a bit of controller fiddling)

The Radius tags supporting this are pretty basic at the moment but will improve. Access control has been the first priority.

Status

Very simple, reasonably well-tested, should just work.

Bugs and comments

In lighthouse, please, or for little things an email or github message is always welcome.
