Added a full FilesetModel that is invoked by the ClassLoaderModel to resolve any/all fileset directives embedded in the classpath directive.  This fileset resolver model uses pattern matching logic from the Apache Ant project to provide Merlin with fileset directives similar to Ant.

Description:
Basically in a <classloader><classpath> we can declare  
   
  <fileset dir="wherever"> 
     <include name="abc.jar"/> 
     <include name="xyz.jar"> 
   </include> 
  </fileset> 
 
There is no current wilcard support - e.g:
  <fileset dir="lib"/> 
 
Should include all files in the directory.

  <fileset dir="lib"> 
    <include name="*.jar"/> 
  </fileset> 
 
should be possible and even better is: 
 
  <fileset dir="lib"> 
     <include name="abc*.jar"/> 
     <exclude name="xyz.jar/> 
   </fileset>

Also, we should attempt to implement as much of the Ant-like fileset patterns like:

 <fileset dir="lib">
    <include name="**/*.jar">
 </fileset>
 
which would include all jars in the lib dir and all its subdirectories?

These are some of the main use cases, and the ones that will be addressed first, but are by no means an exhaustive set of use cases.
