--------------------------------------------------------------

This patch identifies \*.ibooks files, and passes them through the ePub parser. 
Unfortunately, the content of the eBook is not extracted successfully. I'm not 
sure why this is, and feedback would be appreciated here. I think the 
content\*.xhtml files are actually HTML5 and it seems that the current 
XHTML-based parser is unable to parse them. A unit test and test file is 
included.

> With the release of iBooks Author 1.0, Apple have created a new eBook format 
> very similar to ePub. Tika could be extended to identify and parse this new 
> format, re-using the existing ePub code wherever possible.
> I have created an initial patch, which I will attach to this issue.
