Monthly pledge payments should occur on the same day-of-month as the pledge date

Currently, when a user pledges to donate on a monthly basis, the pledge renewal is set to the first day of the month.

This creates odd behaviour. See the attached patch, which sets the renewal date to the same day-of-the-month as today.

To see the problem, imagine that today is Mar 30, I'm giving by EFT and reminders are set 5 days out from renewal. If pledge reminders are set, the use will get 2 reminders, one for the Mar 30 payment and another for April 1.

The supplied patch sets the Pledge to renew on the Nth day of month. Short months are handled well (Nov 31 is Dec 1).

Hey Ken:

thanx for the patches. However, can you please file them as issues and attach the patch there for the set of patches u've posted on various forum topics. This allows us to manage code changes a lot better
