Time for another beta test!

The big change in this one is an option to *not* overwrite/remove the cover *inside* the epub on update. It's handled like 'update calibre metadata'--it's on the add/update dialog every time and there's a config option to pick the default.

This is so people who make custom covers and then push them inside the epubs don't get shafted on every story update.

However, the cover code is rather clunky and complex, so please test it out.

I plan to redo it more logically some day, but this should (hopefully) fix the problem for Firedancer885 and others for now.

Also included, just because they got stacked in:
New: Now copied META-INF/calibre_bookmarks.txt forward across update as well. Also fixes Add New problem.

New: Using the Add New dialog, you can now specify a chapter range to download. This is done by adding the chapter range in [] after the URL, like so:

http://www.siye.co.uk/siye/viewstory.php?sid=129565[1,2]

There's actually four forms you can use:

Explicit begin and end:
http://www.siye.co.uk/siye/viewstory.php?sid=129565[1,2]

Begin specified, end assumed to be end of story:
http://www.siye.co.uk/siye/viewstory.php?sid=129565[2,]

End specified, begin assumed to be start of story:
http://www.siye.co.uk/siye/viewstory.php?sid=129565[,2]

One chapter only:
http://www.siye.co.uk/siye/viewstory.php?sid=129565[2]

Only works on new or overwrite, not on update.

Updates to epubs with missing beginning chapters will result in bad stories. This is a power-user feature for those willing to put their fingers a bit closer to the buzz saw.

Also includes Ida's fixes for dokuga.com.
