Add sample publication #220

This converts the world cultures and geography textbook in the old IDPF samples project to an ebraille publication - at least as best I can do without a validator to double-check everything.

I haven't tried to update the content to match the braille best practices for markup and css, so this is only about the core requirements of the format.

I'm adding the fileset and a packaged ebraille publication in separate folders.

This is not any helpful comment, just an expression of gratitude - this seems already very concrete thing. Again, very exciting step in my view. I believe the appearance on a braille display will be up to the program used for viewing ebrl files in the future.

I just pushed some cleanup of the markup to make the files a little more readable. I took out all the epub:type and class attributes, reformatted line lengths, added the page numbers, and other small stuff like that.

I linked the css file but stripped it of all its styles as I don't think most of that file even applies to this sample (it's for the whole textbook and we only have 15 pages or so). It'll be better to build it up with the styles we need than try to work from everything that was in it.

Great!
