current gadgets terminology.

                 Key: SHINDIG-146
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SHINDIG-146
             Project: Shindig
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Features, Gadgets Server - Java, Gadgets Server - PHP, 
Sample container & Examples
            Reporter: Kevin Brown


Currently, the term "syndicator" (or "synd") is used throughout the code base 
to refer to container-specific details. This is mostly a terminology holdover 
from igoogle, and we should move towards renaming these pieces "container" to 
be in line with current opensocial / gadgets terminology. Suggested changes:

- Rename SyndicatorConfig classes to ContainerConfig
- Rename "syndicator" parameters / variables throughout the code base to 
"container"
- Rename "synd" URL parameter to "container" -- possibly maintain "synd" as an 
alias so that existing deployments don't have to be modified.

The vast majority of shindig deployments will only ever need to support a 
single container, so most of these changes won't affect those deployments, but 
for any deployments that support multiple containers (such as gmodules.com), 
this change will matter.
