Moving Spindle IDE agnostic code into Maven projects

Didn't make sense to have that stuff in the Eclipse plug-in anymore.

And while I was at it I made a package naming change that is looong overdue.

com.iw.plugins.*

becomes

net.sf.spindle.*

'com.iw' was chosen as the company I owned at the time was Intelligent
Works (iw get it?)
IW is long dead (although the corpse jumps up now again to bite me in the ass).

There is a new module in the sf repo called 'spindle-libraries', in
there are two Maven projects inside:

spindle-core; and
spindle-parser

I'm a Maven newbie so it took so long to get it going that the
'spindle-parser' project is actually empty right now. Will fill it up
tomorrow. BTW I have two jars that should just be in there. There's no
source available and thus nothing to build. Any tips on how to embed
these into the project. Maybe unjar them somewhere in the project?

If your IDE of choice is Eclipse, the projects are configured to work
best in an environment that includes the Maven 2 plugin (Eclipse
plugin that is) update url is http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/

One could check out spindle-libraries outside of the workbench and
then import the sub-projects into Eclipse, or one could just import
the subprojects directly. I think either will work fine.

The tests were light to start with but it seems most had Eclipse
dependencies and thus are not destined to sit in spindle-core. Guess
I'll have to write more tests!
