Assigning bugs to self when triaging

Hi,

A while ago, we had a brief discussion with Brian on IRC about whether
there's really a need to assign bugs to ourselves when triaging them,
and his take was that this was only really necessary back when Launchpad
had no convenient way to track bugs that a triager had touched, and that
it no longer was, now that we could list them in our "Bugs" pages. The
decision was that (correct me if I'm wrong, Brian) we should change the
triaging instructions to suggest just subscribing to the bug.

I've edited the Bugs/HowToTriage wiki page (and Bugs/Improving, which is
included in it) to reflect this change. This is mainly meant to notify
those team members that don't check the pages frequently of this change,
and hear from others who might see problems with it that I can't.
