P3: rename accounts, one set of period defaults, tax categories warn or refuse (defects 15, 16, 8)

books.rename_account; account names trimmed, bounded, refused when a
sibling's or TIN-shaped; books.show refuses what its target ignores. A
report asked for without dates covers this fiscal year so far, everywhere
(one rule for tools, descriptions and the viewer; the IIF and CPA package
keep their own dates). policy.require_tax_category warns or refuses; a
Form 4797 gain is shown apart on every return.
