Adding NOTICE and LICENSE files to bundled jars; improving the MANIFESTS

 The Tomcat 5 and 6 releases contain quite a few jars. Some of these
 may well be useful outside the Tomcat project (e.g. the api jars).

 However the jars do not contain NOTICE or LICENSE files, and the
 MANIFESTs are minimal.

 Please could future releases be updated to fix this?

 The sort of entries that would be useful in the MANIFEST files are:

       Built-By: username
       Name: javax/servlet/
       Specification-Title: Java API for Servlets
       Specification-Version: 2.4
       Specification-Vendor: Sun Microsystems, Inc.
       Implementation-Title: javax.servlet
       Implementation-Version: 2.4.public_draft
       Implementation-Vendor: Apache Software Foundation
       X-Compile-Source-JDK: 1.4
       X-Compile-Target-JDK: 1.4
