From: Mike Schonberg <mschonberg@...>

Added better download and build instructions for the Avis client and router.

For the OpenMAMA build it is necessary to specify --with-avis to build the Avis
bridge, and it is also necessary to invoke generateBuildFiles.sh prior to
building source from a cloned git repository.

The default install of Avis is missing a header file. This needs to be moved
manually in the include directory. The OpenMAMA configure script checks for
this header and will exit with an error if not found.
