Misc. content corrections in preparation for alpha 2 release.

Farewell, 'zope.interface'.  You served us well.

More doc edits; the tutorial should now be completely up to date (I hope!)

Fleshed out "Getting Started With PEAK" with more API and package details.
Also, misc. formatting and cosmetic cleanups.

Moved "Getting Started with PEAK" from Chapter 2 to Chapter 1

Fixed misc. awkward turns of phrase.  Fixed formatting of double-quoted
phrases.  Added document formatting convention subsection.  Changed
car make names to 'aCar' and 'anotherCar' to avoid needing to include
trademark disclaimer.  :)

Added subsection on component interface concepts, and citations for
the Zope Interface package's documentation and the Zope 3 Component
Architecture tutorial.  Went back and marked the first appearance of
important terms with \strong{}.  This makes things clearer to the reader,
and it should also help tracking down index terms later!  I should probably
add a document conventions section to the intro chapter, but that's really
the only convention that exists so far, so I'll wait until there's more to
say about the subject.

Started a basic concepts introduction for the "binding" chapter of the
tutorial.

First-draft implementation of the "Straw Man" transaction API I proposed
on the Persistence-SIG list, with various changes based on others' ideas
and suggestions on the list, and Jeremy's new transaction API for ZODB4.
There's a lot still to do, though, this isn't a working implementation by
far.  In particular, note that ITransactionParticipant is *way* wrong still
compared to what it needs to be.

Also, added a peak.storage.api package, and made it available via peak.api.
Misc. doc updates for this, and to fix some spacing issues in the tutorial
source.

Abstract and introduction for the new PEAK core tutorial.
