zzz 094cf14d4a Debian:
Prep for dependency on libtomcat7
Doesn't work yet, breaks susidns.
glassfish-javaee for jstl.jar and standard.jar version 1.2 won't work with tomcat7,
it's ancient and not compatible with recent el libs.
Add back option to depend on libjakarta-taglibs-standard and libjstl1.1-java which are version 1.1.2,
but not clear if they will work with tomcat7 either, even though they are
dependencies of libjetty8-extra-java.
We switched from JSTL 1.1.2 to JSTL 1.2 when we went from Jetty 5 to Jetty 6 in 2012.
1.2 libs are not available anywhere except for Glassfish, and
Debian only has the ancient Java EE 5 Glassfish 2.1.
Not clear there's any way to get susidns (and bote) to work with both Tomcat 6 and 7.
- Fix wrong jsp-api version
- Fix other minor errors in install and links files.
- Log stack trace for Jetty warnings if log level is WARN
- SusiDNS: Move standard.jar and jstl.jar out of WEB-INF/lib, where Tomcat 7 build refuses to find them

The routerconsole application is an embedable web server / servlet container.
In it there is a bundled routerconsole.war containing JSPs (per jsp/*) that
implement a web based control panel for the router.  This console gives the user
a quick view into how their router is operating and exposes some pages to 
configure it.

The web server itself is Jetty [1] and is contained within the various jar files
under lib/.  To embed this web server and the included router console, the 
startRouter script needs to be updated to include those jar files in the 
class path, plus the router.config needs appropriate entries to start up the
server:

  clientApp.3.main=net.i2p.router.web.RouterConsoleRunner
  clientApp.3.name=webConsole
  clientApp.3.args=7657 0.0.0.0 ./webapps/

That instructs the router to fire up the webserver listening on port 7657 on
all of its interfaces (0.0.0.0), loading up any .war files under the ./webapps/
directory.  The RouterConsoleRunner itself configures the Jetty server to give
the ./webapps/routerconsole.war control over the root context, directing a
request to http://localhost:7657/index.jsp to the routerconsole.war's index.jsp.
Any other .war file will be mounted under their filename's context (e.g. 
myi2p.war would be reachable at http://localhost:7657/myi2p/index.jsp).
