Made Four Island 2 a little more sane

I spent the last few hours sanitizing the database and fixing huge bugs in the code. Among the changes made were:
- "Theoretically related posts" have been removed due to the lack of FULLTEXT index support in InnoDB tables
- Removed tons of stripslashes() calls that were used to remove slashes from records before I realized (while doing all of this work) that magic_quotes_gpc was on for some reason. I mean, like, come on!
- Replaced all non-library uses of htmlentities() with htmlspecialchars(), which basically does the same thing except it doesn't mangle Unicode.
- Completely eradicated polls.
Note that this does mean that all database backups prior to December 11th 2010 are now incompatible with Four Island.
