Update on Windows shortcut features for ITW

[jtesdall]

I have my changes complete for now. I have attached a zip file with my
changed .java classes and the new mslinks.jar needded to create windows
shortcuts. I have also included the original unchanged source code in the
original directory.

Jiri, you may want to change the way I have done some things as it pertains
to ITW. What I have seems to work well though. I have done quite a bit of
testing and will be doing substantially more in the coming weeks in my
office. I am hoping to have this in production by Jan 15th. Would you please
do whatever is needed to submit these as changesets and test on linux to
make sure I didn't break anything there?

Note: The reason my netx.jar would not work after copying in boot.class is
that the jar struccturre had changed at some point and added a whole
directory of classes net\sourceforge\swing. Once I copied in those classes I
could create a my own jar by replacing classes once again.

Here is what I have done as it pertains to each class:

*changed in runtime\ApplicationInstance.java*
many changes to add windows shortcut to desktop and add Start menu item
taken from JNLP. This menu has the app shortcut and an uninstall shortcut.
added new library mslinks to create windows shortcuts since they are in a
binary format.
favicon.ico from apps root is downloaded and cached and used for shortcut
ico, if none is present it will not have a pretty icon

*changed in cache\CacheUtil.java*
added code to delete shortcut and menu subdir in clearcache
added overload function for clearcache to delete one app at a time from
cache instead of clearing the whole thing

*changed in runtime\Boot.class*
added code to allow passing a parameter to -xclearcache with parameter of
jnlpPath to remove one app from cache. This was needed to allow a Windows
App uninstall shortcut. If no parameter is passed all of the chache is
cleared as was normal before my change. This was done in init function.

*changed in cache\ResourceDownloader.class* 
add new parameter jnlpPath to .info file so files can be found by jnlp. This
allows clearcache to mark one applications files for deletion so a later
call to cleancache works and actually deletes the files correctly.
added these lines String jnlpPath =
JNLPRuntime.getInitialArguments().get(1).toString();
entry.setJnlpPath(jnlpPath);

*changed in cache\CacheEntry.class*
added setJnlpPath(jnlpPath) function to add jnlpPath to .info files as
needed by ResourceDownloader above.

*changed in resources\Messages.properties*
improved english for some messages
