add Tellurium API based on jQuery in Engine 0.1.0

[GoogleCodeExporter]

From Dominic:

I'm using isVisible() quite a lot on our site (useful for Ajax
completion for us). It is quite slow in IE so I looked at writing an
extension to use jQuery's "visible" locator. This is working well for
me.

In user-extensions.js I have:

Selenium.prototype.isVisibleJQ = function(locator){
       return teJQuery(selenium.browserbot.findElement(locator)).is
(":visible");
}

In my custom groovy file I have

public class CustomMethods extends CustomCommand{

       public Boolean isVisibleJQ(locator){
               Object ret = commandProcessor.doCommand("isVisibleJQ", locator)
                               //This is needed as a simple cast does
not work
               if(ret.toString().equals("true")){
                       return true;
               } else {
                       return false;
               }

       }
}

In my Java code I use it like this:

Boolean isVisible = (Boolean) dslContext.customUiCall(uid,
"isVisibleJQ", new Object[0]);

This method appears to be appreciably quicker than the standard
Selenium version.

Will consider to add Tellurium API based on jQuery. We will support both and 
through
the same Java API. A new flag will be used to indicate whether a user wants to 
use
Selenium native API or Tellurium API.

Added new Tellurium API to engine and use the following method to decide 
whether to
use the new jQuery based APIs.       

 useTelluriumApi(boolean isUse)
