Fixing bug #132994: We come to bury Pluto, not praise him.

We have already been deriving Pluto from the KSAsteroid class 
for practical reasons.  With this change, Pluto is now labeled 
an "asteroid" in the details dialog.

SVN commit 767475 by harris:

While Pluto is not a planet, it isn't an asteroid either.  The Detail 
dialog now refers to Pluto, Ceres and Eris as "Dwarf planets".  

Can't backport due to new string.
