[phobos] Upping the number of bugzilla votes from 10 to 100

[Jesse Phillips]

Considering the fact that votes are so precious and, as Brad points
out, there has been no visible priority given to them. I'd say the 19
bugs with over 5 votes should be tackled first.

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/buglist.cgi?field0-0-0=votes&query_format=advanced&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=REOPENED&type0-0-0=greaterthan&value0-0-0=5

Then possibly upping the count could be considered beneficial.
