Implement SikuliWebDriver element finding as a "By" subclass

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The mechanism that webdriver supplies for extending the set of locators it can 
use is to subclass the By class. It would be nice if sikuli-webdriver 
implemented this:

public class BySikuli {
  public static By byImage(final String url) {
    return new By() {
      public WebElement findElement(SearchContext context) {
        // Sikuli magic here
      }

      public List<WebElement> findElements(SearchContext context) {
        // Sikuli magic here
      }
    }
  }
}

It could then be used like so:

driver.findElement(byImage(myUrl));

Comment #2 makes no sense, you'd still have to extend WebDriver for this, makes 
sense for the "extension" to be part of SikuliFirefoxDriver/SikuliWebDriver 
than a separate project or part of WebDriver.
