This commit implements the .tex-based online help system in LON-CAPA. It
may be necessary to manually run loncom/build/help_graphics_converter.pl
and doc/help/rebuildLabelHash.pl after a cvs update, and
loncapa_apache.conf may need to be manually copied to /etc. (The
loncapafiles.lpml has been updated.)

After merging this, the URL http://[loncapahost]/adm/help/Foils.hlp
should display a help file.

Also, some *very* out-of-date files have been removed from the /doc
directory.

Numerical Response problems are answered by entering a number and an optional
unit. For instance, a numerical response problem might have an answer of
$2m/s^{2}$. Formula Response problems are answered by entering a mathematical
formula. For instance, a numerical response problem might have an answer
of $x^{2}+11$. The answer may be in any equivalent format. For instance,
for $x^{2}+11$, the system will also accept $x*x+11$ or $x^{2}+21-10$.
