In this change, there are proposed improvement to Swift documentation aimed at
first-time contributors. They include a simplification of the Getting
Started page and a new page with some basic instructions/commands that the
first-time contributor should know. In addition, it shows some common errors
that the first-time contributor may find when executing git rebase and
information on how to track your changes.

These docs currently say we target ubuntu 10.04 and an eventlet version
that our requirements file does not allow. Update these versions.

dnspython was added recently to the list of requirments.
This patch completes the change:
1. The new requirement is documented
2. The need for tox --recreate is documented
(assuming there is no way to automate 2 above)

Fixes: Bug #1176627
There are 3 sections in there, all useless.
Section 1 tells you how to install Swift packages from the swift-core
PPA. However, the latest version there is ancient.
Section 2 tells you how to build your own Swift packages. However, it
talks about getting the source code from the "debian" branch in bzr,
which is obviously really old.
Section 3 tells you how to take the packages from section 2 and
install them. This isn't too out-of-date, but since section 2 doesn't
work any more, section 3 is useless.
Since stale docs are worse than no docs, there's no current
information in this document, and bringing it up-to-date requires a
whole pile of work, I've chosen to delete it entirely.
Also pulled out a couple references to the PPA elsewhere.

This change replaces WebOb with a mostly compatible local library,
swift.common.swob. Subtle changes to WebOb's API over the years have been a
huge headache. Swift doesn't even run on the current version.
There are a few incompatibilities to simplify the implementation/interface:
* It only implements the header properties we use. More can be easily added.
* Casts header values to str on assignment.
* Response classes ("HTTPNotFound") are no longer subclasses, but partials
on Response, so things like isinstance no longer work on them.
* Unlike newer webob versions, will never return unicode objects.
