Project groups

Registered by Matthew Paul Thomas

There is much unnecessary confusion about projects in Launchpad, and most of the projects registered are not useful. This will be resolved by renaming "products" to "projects", and renaming "projects" to "project groups".

Apart from the renaming int he UI, the occurences of the terms in source code must be renamed, too, to avoid confusion for developers. This becomes more important as more contributers from the community work on the Launchpad code. This blueprint lists bug reports that make out the steps that need to be taken for that.

The bugs are in a logical sequence and although some of them could be fixed simultaniously, conflicts will be avoided by fixing them sequentially.

Database update is covered in a different blueprint but could need a bug, too.
