Title: added Whirr files for CentOS-based cluster; noted release of Whirr 0.7.1 which does fix Java problem

I'm a CentOS guy from way back and wanted to see if I could get it working. My pseudo-justification is that I am working on a tutorial which starts with Cloudera's CDH VM and it's CentOS-based, so it's easier to stick to one flavor of Limux. In any case, someone may find it helpful. I chose a recent AMI of 4.6 from RightScale, as they seem to have a pretty good rep.

Also, I updated a couple of comments as Whirr 0.7.1 has been released and does fix the Java problems.

HTH,
Jeffrey
