Replace Markup.js with Jade [1] for real templating (like expression
evaluation and sane syntax). Jade compiles directly to JavaScript which
makes it possible to only have Jade as build dependency with a tiny
runtime wrapper for the client (around 40% of Markup.js's size).
Templates are rewritten for Jade but do not use all features from Jade
(such as filters, mixins and includes) for now.
A simple requirejs-jade wrapper to compile Jade during runtime is
already included.
i18n
----
I also rewrote the i18n module and moved translation and pluralization
functions back into the module, thus decoupling it from the previous
markup language. The module now exposes:
* i18n.translate(msgid) -> string
* i18n.pluralize(msgid, n) -> string
I18n depends on app/config and thus has access to the user's prefered
language and exposes both function with `i18n.lang` already set. If the
msgid was not found, it returns "???" (like Markup.js).
The pluralization function replaces `{{ n }}` with the function argument
just like with Markup.js (to keep the diffs clean).

Then, use bower to fetch components and put libraries not
available as (web) component into vendor/.
Move crypto parts and identicon generation modules into app/lib.
* refactor JS (a lot)
* use a CSS framework (neat/bourbon), because CSS is hard
* up/downvote comments
* cleaner HTML
* HTML inclusion in JS
* SVG icons for reference, up and downvote
* basic i18n: english and german supported ootb
* lazy (because slow) client-side identicon generation (preview ability)
* removed website input field for no particular reason
* remove HTML.js in favour of a homebrew DOM manipulation tool
