Patch: strike

We do "todo" lists a lot on our Wiki, outside of the Ticket system, and
so we want a way to mark something as obviousely completed without
removing it.

So, attached is a very, very simple patch (barely worth a patch :))
adding a 'strike' WIkiformatting to cross something out.

E.g:

--This is striked--

Seems like a pretty good idea to me. I added a ticket #524 for the issue, for
future reference (and for any potential objections before merging).

Thanks for the patch (patchette? ;-)

Heh. I've never in my entire life needed or desired to strike out any
text before on anything I've done, so I never knew <strike> was
deprecated. So, in response to "cmlenz"'s comment on the ticket, I tried
out <del>. It renders like strike on the browsers I care about (MSIE,
Firefox, Safari), so I vote <del> =)

Good point. I googled for various syntaxes used, and found this list which
will prove helpful:

I like the idea, but this causes formatting problems on many of the
default wiki pages, since they use -- as a long dash. I've seen both --
and ~~ used on other wikis for this, and ~~ seems more safe.
