FB preprocessing

Since detecting FB-refreshes is impossible, unless you wait for Rip to be refreshed a 4th time by mangle/shred, or go for a more reliable approach of checking if it ends when it shoud, I've decided to use a different way and do a preprocess phase of the combat log, where I only look for FB/Rip durations.  This allows me to pre-flag the FB events as "refreshes" and makes the analysis code less messy.
Alternatively, I could go for some on-the-fly log editing, adding AURA_REFRESH events for Rips where they should be.  I'll try both approaches.  Whatever the result, having a preprocess phase will make life easier for several other things (I could consider moving the OOC use detection there, for example).

Melee auras: it seems like Improved Icy Talons is there.  I need to check out more in detail, but this is good. No idea about the others, but there's hope!

FB/Rip refresh: nope.  Argh :(

I think I'll just disable any error checking on FB and just report the time left on SR/Rip, leaving the user to decide if it's an error or not.
