Maintenance of GanttChartPlugin

[Stefan Simroth]

This doesn't seem to be maintained anymore by the original author, but I have made some changes that would fix some outstanding issues, namely the following:

• fixed #7122: removed superfluous error log message
• applied patch from #2965
• applied font_path patch from #3367
• use expand_macro instead of deprecated render_macro (avoids a warning log message), see also #7122
• setup.py: added link to GanttChartPlugin, because the other one is down

See the attached patch.

I would like to commit the changes and therefore take part in the maintenance of this plugin.

You've made the appropriate request to the author and no reply, so I will test and apply your patches shortly. Do you wish to permanently take over maintenance of the plugin?

Unfortunately, no, because currently I don't have the necessary time.

Thanks for applying the patch! Glad that I could contribute at least a bit, although I don't have more time available right now!
