Created by Bogdan Marinov and last modified

Work on the Satellites plug-in:

Cleanup and expansion of the newly introduced satellites magnitude feature. Including, but not limited to:
- download the magnitude file with the rest of the updates, don't keep a default copy

Re-work of the way updates are handled:
- local caching of update files
- use cached update files for adding new satellites instead of downloading them again
- download only changed files (use HEAD requests to get last-modified date)
- handle HTTP redirects
- introduce redirect on the stellarium.org domain, later may be substituded with cached copies of the files. :)

Better GUI/backend separation:
- in particular, remove the "select satellites to add" backed from the GUI - it needs to present just a model.
