FPC Versions in Mantis

- Bugs can only be fixed in odd-releases, that means only in the development versions (2.1.1,2.3.1,etc.)

- For all preliminary release until a .0 (e.g 2.2.0) release the version will be increase instead of a new version added. I've now updated 2.1.1 to 2.1.3.

- With the final release of a stable branch the development release will be renamed to the stable name (2.1.3->2.2.0)

- After a stable release a new version for the new development version will be added (2.2.1 in case of 2.2.0 release).

This way the changelog of mantis looks also nice with issues resolved in each released version.
