All occurances of "pipeline" have been chanaged to "project" or "template"
withint the text (comments, READMEs, and comments) of the template. The
main template branch is now also named `template'.
This was all because `pipeline' is too generic and couldn't be
distinguished from the base, and customized project.

Until now, the files where the people were meant to change didn't have a
proper copyright notice (for example `Copyright (C) YOUR NAME.'). This was
wrong because the license does not convey copyright ownership. So the name
of the file's original author must always be included and when people
modify it (and add their own copyright-able modifications).
With this commit, the file's original author (and email) are added to the
copyright notice and when more than one person modified a file, both names
have their individual copyright notice.
Based on this, the description for adding a copyright notice in
`README-hacking.md' has also been modified.

Until now, we were using `flock' (file-lock) for downloading the input
datasets in series. But we couldn't do this when downloading the software
tarballs because `flock' wasn't yet available. Generally, unlike
processing, downloading is much better done in series than in parallel.
To enable serial downloads of the software also, with this commit we are
installing `flock' in the configure script (not in a Makefile). As a
result, besides `flock', we can also benefit from the other good features
of the `reproduce/src/bash/download-multi-try' script *(for example
attempting download again after some time).
Some GNU mirrors may have problems at the time of download, so with this
commit, we are using the main GNU FTP server for GNU programs.

In the example running code of the wrapper script, I had just written
`./download-multi-try', but this script is meant to be run from the top of
the project directory. This could cause confusion.
So the example script now starts with `/path/to/download-multi-try'.

We don't have a `.sh' suffix in the other scripts of `reproduce/src/bash',
so it was also removed from this script.
