changelog + nd-vmsetupwizard: Preparing 0.29 release of neurodebian for updated nd...

* VM (6.0.6):
  - base on 6.0.6 Debian point release (finally version of NeuroDebian
    VM is in sync with the Debian release)
  - nd-vmsetupwizard:
    - robustify check/linking of $HOME/host
    - optional installations dialog:
      - set height of the dialog to 450 for to fit all list items
      - refactored "GIMP" section into "Graphics" which would install
        also inkscape, vym and svgtune
      - added sections for "PyMVPA tutorial", and different collections of
        Python modules (Neuroimaging, Electrophysiology, etc)
      - Python selections depend on ipython01x instead of older ipython
        to provide IPython notebooks facilities out-of-the-box
