[spam-stopper] Akismet MODification for phpBB

[Douglas Bell]

The difficult parts are getting together the information that is sent  
to Akismet from phpBB (since Akismet is intended for blogs, not  
fora), but I am working it out. So far, I'm working on a basic system  
where the admin can choose to check all comments for spam, only check  
unregistered comments for spam, or not check any comments for spam.  
I'm hoping in future versions I can extend this to allow more  
advanced control using phpBB's authentication system.
