- network redirect improvements:
- gallery page jobs now give their child 'next gallery page' jobs themselves as a referrer
- when the gallery downloader gets a 3XX redirect, the file import objects and next gallery pages it makes now get the redirected URL as referral url (previously, it used the original gallery url)
- when the post downloader gets a 3XX redirect, the redirected url is now added as a primary source url
- when the post downloader gets a 3XX redirect, child import objects and direct file downloads now get the redirect URL as referral url (previously, it used the original post url)
- when the raw file downloader gets a 3XX redirect, the redirected url is now added as a primary source url
- when the raw file downloader gets a 3XX redirect to a Post URL, it now tries to queue that URL back up in the file log, just like when a gallery fetch comes back with a Post URL. some safety code stops potential loops here as well

- new services:
- a new client now starts with a second local tag service called 'downloader tags'. default tag import options are now initialised in a fresh client to pull all file post tags to this service. this should relieve new users' confusion about setting up default tag import options
- similarly, a new client now starts with a like/dislike rating service called 'favourites'. existing users who have no rating services will be asked if they want to get it on update. many users are unaware of the rating system, so this is a chance to play with it
- the 'getting started with downloading' 'and '...with ratings' help has some updated screenshots and talk about the new default services and parsing

- database fixes:
- fixed a very slow database query that was involved with file search using unnamespaced tags when other search predicates had already limited the scope of search
- fixed a similar slow query when the 'bad' search predicate was 'namespace:anything', particularly when the namespace is a wildcard
- fixed the 'clear orphan tables' database maintenance routine. it had decayed due to bit rot and was deleting new repository processing tracking tables. the routine is now plugged directly into the new database modules system, and any module now can be upgraded to discover surplus service tables. the system has been updated to permit the detection and removal of duplicate tables in the wrong database file, and it also makes a statement if no orphan tables were found
