Allen Wittenauer updated YETUS-995:
-----------------------------------
    Release Note: 
<!-- markdown -->
Users:

The log files for tests have been popped up into the voting table for many of the generated reports.

Developers:

This is a breaking change.  It reworks how tests should be registering the logfiles that they present to users and how bugsystem reporting engines should retrieve the filenames for those logfiles:

* add_vote_table() has been deprecated and replaced with add_vote_table_v2() that now takes an additional parameter.  Code that uses add_vote_table()/add_footer_table() combo will NOT have their log file entries reported with some bugsystem reporting engines.
* The TP_VOTE_TABLE has been re-arranged a bit to add in the log filename. Custom reporting engines will need to modified.

> A big design from early on in test-patch history was that the log entry was separate from the vote.  This setup was likely done for a variety of aesthetic and practical reasons for JIRA. However, that design is flawed in that it is letting display dictate internals.  With GitHub Status (YETUS-994), this flaw is now very very obvious.
> Fixing this flaw is going to be a MAJOR compatibility break with no particularly easy way to make existing code work.  Details below.
