Summary: document order in which message filters are applied

Initial Comment:
The order in which Mailman applies various filters to messages does not appear to be documented in the administrator's web interface (where it should be) or anywhere else.  As far as I can tell, the only way to find this out is to look at the source or to experiment.

There are numerous feature requests that ask for control over the order in which these filters are applied.   This request is even simpler, just to document the present fixed order of application.  If eventually any control over the order is offered, the present state will need to be displayed to the administrator in the interface, so satisfying this request seems to be a prerequisite to satisfying the others.
