Summary:
Adds the node.js Aphlict server, the flash Aphlict client, and some
supporting javascript. Built on top of - and requires - D2703 (which is still
in progress). Will likely work with no modification on top of the final
version, though.
The node server is currently run with
sudo node support/aphlict/server/aphlict_server.js
Test Plan: tested locally

Summary: Provide a reasonable JS API for the Aphlict client. Provide an example behavior to invoke it.
Test Plan:
Ran "aphlict_server.js" with:
$ sudo node aphlict_server.js
Loaded /aphlict/. Opened console. Got "hello" from the server every second.
Got reasonable errors with the server not present ("Security exception", but this is because it can't connect to port 843 to access the policy server).

Summary:
This is purely a prototype at the moment, but the basic functionality sort of
works.
I'm not sure how far I want to go with this but I think we might be able to get
somewhere without it being gross.
The idea here is to build a notification server WITHOUT using Comet, since Comet
is extremely difficult and complicated.
Instead, I use Flash on the client. LocalConnection allows flash instances to
talk to each other and connect() can be used as a locking primitive. This allows
all the instances to elect a master instance in a race-safe way. The master is
responsible for opening a single connnection to the server.
On the server, I use Node.js since PHP is pretty unsuitable for this task.
See Github Issue #3: https://github.com/facebook/phabricator/issues/3
One thing I need to figure out next is if I can reasonably do SSL/TSL over Flash
(it looks like I can, in theory, with the as3crypto library) or if the server
needs to just send down version information and trigger a separate Ajax call on
the client.
Test Plan:
Created a client pool and connected it to the server, with election and failover
apparently working correctly.
