[News.eclipse.technology.packaging] self contained equinox based eclipse installer

Hello

I have created an eclipse installer.
The installer contains "eclipse classic - windows (140 MB)", but with little modification it could easily be used on other platforms.
The installer would increase by 8 megabytes if it would contain the necessary components to run on mac and linux, too.


With this installer, the download size could be reduced from 140 mb to ~90 mb.

The installer relies on Equinox, JFace and SWT.

TODO:
	- install log in the unpacking process
	- clear the temp folder on exit (osgi configuration folder, etc)
	- IO & UI tweaks
	- Code clean, refactor ;)

And the download:
