orbiter 11639aef35 - added new protocol loader for 'file'-type URLs
- it is now possible to crawl the local file system with an intranet peer
- redesign of URL handling
- refactoring: created LGPLed package cora: 'content retrieval api' which may be used externally by other applications without yacy core elements because it has no dependencies to other parts of yacy
