[lively-kernel] Code reorganization in Webwerkstatt - please check your js files

Yes, I agree it shouldn't be 'kernel/', so we will rename it to 'core/' later in the evening (Oct 28, 1 a.m. CEST or Oct 27 4 p.m. Pacific Time). However, I am not sure that "personal modules" should be part of our core distribution. Either such code belongs into apps/, lib/ or into lively/ and should be synched across repositories or it should remain in a user's folder and shouldn't be synched across repositories. What do you think? 

Best,
Lauritz

Config.codeBase will be /repository/webwerkstatt/kernel instead of /repository/webwerkstatt. Paths relative to Config.codeBase therefore should be fixed (typically with another '../' at the beginning).

By centralizing these files in Webwerkstatt (which is effectively our upstream repository right now), it will be possible to check them out as a Subversion submodule that can be kept in sync with other version control systems.
