[PD-dev] stripping down Pd-extended's default libs

hmm, that matches with what I was proposing (still on a private level) for  
the new categories of documentating pd-ext objects. although some people  
might not like not having their objects in their personal folder, it would  
really make information more easily to come by - fyi, I think in the  
latest object list I've made, there are ~1200 externals (objects +  
abstractions).

I would go to the extra step and and follow yves' suggestions try to ask  
some developpers to change the names of some objects to avoid name clashes  
- if that's possible anyway, after all these years of programming.

I can't contribute with code because I can't code, but I can write mails  
and give (sometimes good) ideas. To remind how big the task is, I attach  
here the list of pd-ext objects I've done some months ago (as a first step  
to try to get an updated documentation for pd-ext).
