[icedtea-web] RFC: do not install netx.jar and plugin.jar into jdk dir

Hi,

The attached patch isolates icedtea-web into its own directories. With 
this patch applied, icedtea-web does not need to be installed into a 
jdk-style dir.

I have removed the pluginappletviewer binary. I had originally posted it 
a separate patch, but since using pluginappletviewer would make this 
patch more complex, I have removed it here.

Currently, the jdk it uses to run is determined at build-time. In the 
future, this will probably be changed so that icedtea-web will be able 
to use any installed jdk.

Any thoughts or comments on the patch?

Cheers,
Omair
