first draft of dashboard view; first draft of quick search but not able to share find_requests() with main search as we need 'AND' not 'OR' logic; combined _process_tests_complete() logic with _get_request_status_query_args() for tests_completed; moved jquery version from 1.4.2 to 1.8.2; moved devel server to port 8000
patched Local::Utils::check_date() to accept 'allow-future-dates' flag; fixed Ajax jquery_check_value() method and switched jQuery method on for HMRN date fields; minor template bugfixes
