Redmine Reporting 1.4.0

• Replace yearly credit policies with credit contracts: dates of any length, one or more trackers, optional subprojects (the closest contract wins), and credit split into envelopes by activity and public/private issues, with dated refills and adjustments. Renew prepares the next contract and can carry the balance over or deduct the overrun.
• Consumption works contract by contract: summary by contract and envelope, how finished contracts closed, and the time outside contracts (or covered by a parent's). Credit figures no longer depend on the reader's issue visibility.
• Contract buttons and a private issues switch filter the whole report; both are also native filters of Redmine's issue and time lists, used by chart clicks.
• Reorganize the project's Reporting settings tab into vertical sub-tabs: Displayed reports, Time unit, Run / Build trackers, SLA statuses (with the SLA plugin) and Contracts.
• Add a help page for project members (/projects/:id/reporting/help), linked from the report and the settings, with short explanations on hover.

Breaking changes

• The migration drops credit policies and refills (reporting_credit_policies, reporting_credit_refills) without conversion. Note your current credits before upgrading and recreate them as contracts.
• REST API: credit_contracts replaces credit_policies.
• Redmine Mirror: the Reporting credit contracts module replaces Reporting credit policies and maps activities too; source and destination both need this release.
