Move to CoffeeScript about shovelleros

[countgizmo]

No updates, huh? The project dead already?

Nope. It's still going but very slow. Haven't had a chance to do much during the last week. I'm optimistic about today though, will probably leave earlier for home.

Looking at this now, we might want to use gulp for everything including running/packing the cocos project. The first coffee change went through, adding the gulp build script. Then will add some config around the screen size, then will probably change the code structure.

I'm not sure whether to close the rest 2 issues, since the vagrant files are mostly done and working, even though the generated image is a bit big.

Github syntax highlighting doesn't work for the Shoveller.coffee, i'm pretty sure it's broken. Will have to fix that too.

Ask Dan to test the box installation on his PC. Then you can close it.

Added a gulp build(http://gulpjs.com) script, that partially works:

• Compiles the coffee files from the src/coffee directory and copies them to the build/ directory.
• Copies the buildfiles/ folder content to the build/ directory
• Makes a symbolic link, or just copies, the frameworks directory into the build/ one.
• Runs the cocos run -p web --host 0.0.0.0:8080 command to start the project inside the vm.

A few enhancements will follow, like the ability to build for different screen sizes, and the release version, but at first we should have a working build through gulp.

And while we are at it, probably a good idea would be to just translate the config js files to coffee script.
