[threeten-dev] Initial review of changes to support Hijrah variants

[roger riggs]

Hi,

The changes to support multiple Hijrah calendar variants resulting
in significant changes to the implementation of HijrahChronology, 
HijrahDate,
and related classes.

The variants are identified by new properties in lib/calendars.properties.
Each variant is defined by a properties file containing id, type, hijrah 
start and
corresponding Gregorian start dates plus month lengths for every month.
The format and contents of the properties file is still being reviewed.

Please review and comment:

javadoc:  (only the Hijrah classes are updated)
