Needs to be merged at the same time.

Switches the dependencies for our PPA from SDL to SDL2-packages. I also took 
the liberty to organize them alphabetically.

Built, installed, and ran fine in my test PPA. 
(https://code.launchpad.net/~hjd/+recipe/widelands-test)


Note that since SDL2 wasn't packaged at the time Ubuntu 12.04 was released, 
those packages aren't available for that release. So we would either need to 
find/create a backport similiar to what we did with GCC 4.7, or retire that 
PPA. I'm partially leaning towards retirement. One thing is using backported 
GCC for building, but SDL will be needed run-time too. So people on 12.04 would 
need to get those packages somehow. That is probably possible somehow (I think 
it is even possible to make one PPA depend on another), though I don't know how 
much effort we should put into making packages available which doesn't exist in 
the regular repo. 14.04 has been out for a while, and most likely more people 
will have migrated to the newer LTS once we make a stable release at some point 
in the future.

(Before we make a decision though, we should probably take a look at the usage 
for the 12.04 PPA. While the LP page doesn't show the download counts, it looks 
like it should be possible through the Launchpad API. Will look into this.)

(Ubuntu 14.04 and later releases have SDL2-packages available and are not 
affected.)
