Revised JOGL's build.xml to look more like JOAL's with autodetection

of OS and CPU. Added default "all" target. It is now no longer
necessary to use the win32.vc6, etc. targets unless on Windows the
jogl.properties file is old and does not contain the win32.c.compiler
property. The nightly build setup will be adjusted for this and these
now-unnecessary targets will be deleted in a subsequent checkin.
Tested builds on Windows, Solaris and Mac OS X.
