Create root-level example for extracted XAP trunk
-------------------------------------------------

                 Key: XAP-283
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XAP-283
             Project: XAP
          Issue Type: Task
            Reporter: Trevor Oldak


When XAP is extracted from its archive, four folder the destination directory. 
From that directory, the user can go into samples and run the examples there, 
or go into dist and run the 'hello world!' app there. However, if the user 
would like to run a xap application from the directory to which they extracted 
the archive, there are no example files. Copying the ajax-index files from dist 
doesn't help either; even if they fix the incorrect paths, the XAP application 
will not run because "uncaught exception: Message:The requested page 
./xap/src/xap/taghandling/plugin.xml is not available". The user will not know 
how to point the browser to the right xml file, and common sense will provide 
no solutions.

If we have a working 'hello world' sample extracted to the same root directory 
as the other folders, however, the user will be able to see how to change the 
directory of their application very easily. This 'hello world' file could also 
serve as a readme and a pointer to the various samples to get a more in-depth 
understanding of xap.
