Update EvaluationTemplate to have clearer links to each UseCase

The idea is to use the evaluation template to fill out for each project
codebase evaluation we do, but have an easy link back to the use case it
refers to.

As I was making this edit, I added a few FIXMEs to things that need
clarification and/or completion.

## Links

- [[!wikipedia Frontaccounting]] - Wikipedia
- <http://frontaccounting.com> - Project homepage


## Technical

- PHP
- MySQL
- GPLv3 or later

## Preliminary evaluation

### Positive

- [Most recent release 2013-09-05](http://frontaccounting.com/wb3/pages/posts/release-2.3.18193.php)
- Themable
- Seemingly easy to deploy (Looking at their source release, structure looks similar to wordpress, for good or worse)

### Negative

- It seems to be built from scratch and not leverage any frameworks.
- Seems like a messy codebase: Table-based design. No templating, HTML is `echo`-ed to stdout.
- Uses the [deprecated](http://php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-connect.php) PHP `mysql_*` functions.
