[equinox-dev] feature metadata and selection contexts

[Jeff McAffer <Jeff_McAffer@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I released a set of changes to add feature
based metadata generation and the inclusion of selection context information
(e.g., osgi.os, ...) in profiles.  I ran the metadata generation,
Test Director etc with success.  I also updated the self hosting code
and am able to launch the provisioning console.   Some notes:

- This change affects the content of
the metadata both in the repo and in the agent so you will have to regenerate
the metadata and likely toss your agent data.  If you have been selfhosting,
don't forget to delete the org.eclipse.equinox.prov.selfhosting dir in
the relevant workspace METADATA area.

- I am experiencing a strange issue
with the profile created when selfhosting.  It appears to be created
etc but appears also to be empty.   The launch seems to work ok etc
but the profile in the registry is empty of IUs.  I've had alot of
trouble tracking this down and suspect that an exception is being eaten
somewhere.  I'll work on it more tomorrow and see if the issue can
be resolved.  Unfortunately I discovered this issue after releasing
the code so it will be a bit hard to revert.  The issue should not
affect most people.  If it does affect you, sorry for the inconvenience.
