I've long wanted to do this, but the launcher's use of all the samskivert UI
stuff made it onerous. Now that the launcher is a separate module, we can
remove the samskivert dependency in core (and tools), which simplifies things
and makes it easier to depend on core in a (future) self-updating app (when we
add support for that).
- core: the main Getdown logic code
- tools: code to create digest.txt & patch files
- launcher: the standalone launcher/updater app
- ant: the Ant task for creating digest.txt files
This paves the way for a proper Jigsaw-ification of the Getdown code.
I may further factor code out of getdown-launcher and into getdown-core to
enable the use-case where an app embeds Getdown completely and does not use the
launcher app/UI. That will also make it easier to create a JavaFX UI and retire
the old Swing UI.
This also moves the obsolete applet code into a separate applet module, which
is merely a temporary holding area. It will be deleted in the next commit.
