Picard 0.13 released

MusicBrainz Picard wasn't under active development for a long time. In fact, the last release was in November 2009. Even due to the situation, some bug fixes accumulated in the source control repository over the time, so the primary goal of this release is to publish these bug fixes. There were also a few larger patches, such us the sorting support by Aaron Lambers, but these are not included in this release. I'm hoping that patches like that will get committed now that 0.13 is released and a new release will follow in less than a year from now. :)
