- Patch #77919 by chx, eaton, moshe, et al: enable programmaticaly submitted forms via the pull model.

See: http://drupal.org/node/64279#t-placeholders

- Make installer code integrate better with module.inc / system.module
- Fix schema version bug when installing core

- Patch #68926 by chx, jeremy, steven, eaton, webchick, amazon, neil, nedjo et al: an initial install system for Drupal core.

- #40515: Ensure UTF-8 character set on the database side (and include upgrade path for incorrectly set up databases)

  - When user #1 creates an account (we can assume this happens only once), system.module's schema version is set to the latest availiable.
  - system_get_files_database() now includes a 'schema_version' child of each file object.
  - That new information is re-saved when Drupal re-populates the system table.
  - An array of newly-enabled modules is built, module_list() is reloaded, and the schema versions of each newly-enabled module are set to the most recent availiable. If the schema version is already set (presumably from a previous installation) it is not changed.
