Helloworld from piccolo2d.org relies on piccolox

Solution:

rephrase the example to use piccolo2d-core classes only and update the website.

I'll suggest this code as basic Hello-World example (and weave it into the 
website):

import javax.swing.JFrame;

import edu.umd.cs.piccolo.PCanvas;
import edu.umd.cs.piccolo.nodes.PText;

public class HelloPiccolo2d extends JFrame {

    private static final long serialVersionUID = 7325281186388356689L;

    public static void main(final String[] args) {
        final JFrame me = new HelloPiccolo2d();
        me.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        me.setSize(200, 50);
        me.setVisible(true);
    }

    private HelloPiccolo2d() {
        final PCanvas canvas = new PCanvas();
        final PText text = new PText("Hello World");
        canvas.getLayer().addChild(text);
        this.add(canvas);
    }
}

in r414 and r415 I removed PFrame in favour of JFrame from
http://piccolo2d.org/learn/out-of-box-java.html though I'm not sure if this was 
smart.

PFrame is used in /all/ the examples...
