[Gambas-user] New packages on the stable PPA

1. "gambas3" is a development language so all "the development environment"
is all the packages, not only "gambas3-ide" that is only the "integrated
development environment"
2. "gambas3-ide" is only the Editor and graphical development environment,
developers still can develop without that of course
3. "gambas3-dev-tools" must be a dependency on the "gambas3-ide", and this
one then must depends on "gambas3-runtime"
4. Gambas IDE said that it "relies" on external tools but does not depend
on (still can work without), so the right word must be "Recommends" because
the "optional" word is only for some of those tools. I checked the code and
there's no checks around for, so IDE can start normally.

I updated the bug related to:
http://gambaswiki.org/bugtracker/edit?object=BUG.2161

NOTE: still studying the rest of cases for packaging .. mostly gui ones
