Rename all components to be references to Firefly.

                 Key: MESOS-1
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-1
             Project: Mesos
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: c++-api, java-api, master, python-api, slave, webui
         Environment: Year: 2517; earth-that-was, and all terraformed planets 
and moons.
            Reporter: Andy Konwinski
            Priority: Critical


Now that Mesos has been accepted into the Apache Incubator, with a thriving 
community already forming, it is necessary to set a precedent as to the bold 
nature of the Mesos development philosophy and the ambition of the project. 
Clearly, the only way such statement could be made is by means of a radical 
statement in the source code of the project itself. Therefore, all source code 
should be re-factored such that variable and class names are sensical 
references to Firefly characters or events (see: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firefly_(TV_series)[1]. Firefly, being a commonly 
admired story of the existing development team, embodies the high impact, free 
spirit, of the growing team and the project.

Ballad of Serenity:
----------------------------
Take my love, take my land 
Take me where I cannot stand 
I don't care, I'm still free 
You can't take the sky from me 
Take me out to the black 
Tell them I ain't comin' back 
Burn the land and boil the sea 
You can't take the sky from me 
There's no place I can be 
Since I found Serenity 
But you can't take the sky from me...
