#8087: Reduce workflow keyword options when opening new tickets

-------------------------+--------------------
Either removing or disabling options in the Workflow Keywords `<select>`
can reduce clutter and avoid some confusion on the Create New Ticket page.
Some people open tickets on (Core) Trac with the 'reporter-feedback' or
'changes-requested' keywords, referring to their feedback or their request
for changes.
Several other keywords do not fit for new tickets either, such as 'needs-
refresh' and 'close'.
Most of the 'needs-' keywords are good, but it would be too early to
assign most 'has-' keywords. I have added 'has-patch' and 'has-
screenshots' when attaching files to new tickets, and 'has-unit-tests'
might fit just as well as the other two.
Apart from 'good-first-bug', the `gardenerKeywordList` is usually
unnecessary for new tickets. For the rare occasion that a gardener knows a
ticket needs 'early' consideration before it is open, the manual entry
field is still available.
