[fpc-pascal]New release when?

The IDE for 1.0.6 still has some problems that prevent releasing. The 
developer that can solve those problems is now on holiday.

The snapshots of the 1.0 branch are created using the same script as the 
release. Just unzippping them is enough to install it like a release.
