People keep filling in "fix release" when creating (or working on
bugs).  However, fix release really needs to be set only for
resolved/closed issues ... and in fact, must be set then.

I noticed that a large number of issues were marked with a fix release
of "5.3" but were not actually fixed; this lead to some problems
generating accurate issue list for the 5.3 release notes page.  I did
some bulk updates and hopefully didn't screw anything up too bad.

Firstly: please be careful; when working on bugs, make sure fix
release is clear; only set fix release when closing/resolving a bug.

Secondly: we need to decide on closing vs. resolving; generally,
"resolved" means a fix has been committed, and "closed" means the
committed fix has been verified. We tend to cut corners, and that's
ok, as long as we're consistent.  I think all issues should be closed.

Lastly: anyone out there a JIRA wizard who can fix up our workflows to
enforce the above?
