artemp/trac2github — Issue #502: Ability to read pre-0.8.0 stylesheets

The most obvious change and a show stopper in reading a pre-0.8.0 stylesheet is the change of name="field" to name="[field]". The rest of the syntax looks like it would be accepted.

It would be good when, if someone declares or earlier, the map loader would dynamically interpret name="field" and interpret that as name="[field]".

When the minimum_version is not supplied, or when it is 0.8.0+, don't try to be interpretive, and (likely) throw a config error.
