[drupal-devel] [task] Improve access rules UI

Tres cool!  

However, I do think form_group()s might help unclutter the interface. 
On your screenshot (and on my local test site using Chameleon) it is
hard to see where each part of the page starts (and ends).  The visual
difference between the headers and the form titles are too small to be
confortable.  I like Kristjan's form_group()s better.

This patch implements
http://kika.trip.ee/images/drupal_tabs_accessrules-183.png.

Differences from mockup, most are noted in the mockup as something
unclear or needing more work:
- The columns are ordered such that when read from left to right they
make sense.
- The form is ordered the same way.
- The two radio button groups are not side by side.
- The help text is better.
- There are no nice icons. (The watchdog 'stop' icon is nice, but it
has 'watchdog' in the filename. There is nothing green.)
- Used an h3 tag instead of a form group, which is more consistent
across Drupal.
- Added the check rules UI at the bottom.
