Kwabena W. Agyeman 0abd5d3688 Working on scripts...
Moved feature detection scripts into their own folders and added explict
frame_skip value per Ibrahim's request.

Finished working on snapshot and video recording scripts for next
release.

... From CMUcam4 work I learned that people will just want examples that
do "X" thing. So, in general, our examples should include a simple
script showing off a feature and then a more complex script that does "X"
where "X" is some app that a person would want. For example, we'll get
reuqests for face tracking with servos, and movement detection with
servos. So, instead of answering this question a million times with an
example script we'll just have examples for all kinds of things people
will want.

Gotta automate dealing with help support at the end of the day...
