Prototype/toolkit "rosetta stone" document #316

Start a document that lists conceptual and conventional differences between WCP and WCT as they may pertain to the porting. Keep each item brief with details, if any, put later in the doc.

To start with:

WCP intervals on a discrete space are inclusive, WCT are half open. Eg, if a time slice spans ticks, 4, 5, 6, 7 this range would be represted as [4,7] in WCP and [4,8] in WCT. WCP might label this as [min,max] while WCT labels it as (begin,end) (C++ iterator convention).

Feel free to append others to this Issue. I will maintain a note in the source tree, probably under util/docs/
