Vote from anonymous not counted more than once

Description

After installing tracpoll 0.1 a vote from 'anonymous' is not counted more often than once.

That's how I call the plugin: 

[[Poll(Do you like the project?; Yes; No; Don't know)]]

After the first anonymous vote the result looks like this:

  • Yes (gerry, anonymous)
  • No
  • Don't know

After voting again as anonymous it changes to this:

  • Yes (gerry)
  • No (anonymous)
  • Don't know

From what I remember it used to be like this after the second vote:

  • Yes (gerry, anonymous)
  • No (anonymous)
  • Don't know

Is this intentionally done like that? I understand, that double votes can change the result. But if anonymous users are allowed to vote, I'd prefer if every vote is counted.

We should probably implement the handling of users in the same way that the VotePlugin is implemented. That is, a user must have a valid session (via /prefs) in order to vote.
