(note: to avoid merge conflicts, this PR includes #575) In order to address NUTCH-2859 host names starting with `*.` (in the config file `protocols.txt` or in the string rules) are matched as suffixes: `*.example.org` matches `example.org`, `www.example.org`, `www.subdomain.example.org`, etc. Additional improvements: - allow to read config file protocols.txt from hdfs:// or any file system supported by Hadoop - useful if the list of host or domains requiring normalization is large or changes often - add Javadoc package documentation - document configuration properties in nutch-default.xml - reduce the memory footprint by deduplicating protocol strings, so that same protocol values are references to same objects -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
