Review request for mesos.


Changes
-------

Update diff for autotools build system changes.


Summary
-------

This adds files sufficient to build a package for Ubuntu 11.10. After the patch and a fix for MESOS-81, running

./debian/make_snapshot_changelog.sh && debuild -us -uc

should produce a .deb. It is currently necessary that 'java' and 'javac' be configured (as through update-alternatives) to be OpenJDK 7 for this to work.

The resulting package installs Mesos components into /usr/local/mesos, and uses python2.7 and OpenJDK 7. Upstart scripts are installed for mesos-master and mesos-slave along with an /etc/default/mesos to configure them.

Things still to be done to make more generally acceptable Debian packages:
- allow building against other JDKs and python versions, so this package can be built for other Debian-based distros (at least earlier versions of Ubuntu);
- install configuration templates;
- make default configuration use places in /var/log for logging and /var/spool (??) or /var/tmp (??) for work directories.
- fix various lintian violations:
  - install Mesos to standard directories: binaries to /usr/sbin and /usr/bin; libraries to /usr/lib; headers to /usr/include (?); python libraries to ??
  - don't use RPATH to make linking against libjvm work at test time
  - don't install .py files as executable
- add documentation on how to configure the given startup scripts;


This addresses bug MESOS-74.
