Take all code from Asko Kauppi's SVN server, and push it here so that the github repository becomes the official Lanes source codebase.

Note that Asko's SVN server holds version 2.0.9, whereas this is version 2.0.10, but I don't see any real need to update SVN if it is to become deprecated.

Next steps:
- upgrade the rockspec to the latest version
- make the html help available online somewhere
