Title: Many code changes to make everything work with Path and XmlInputFormat. Completes milestone 2.

The existing code works with Files. Hadoop works with [Paths](http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.3.0/api/org/apache/hadoop/fs/Path.html) and [FileSystem](http://hadoop.apache.org/docs/r2.3.0/api/org/apache/hadoop/fs/FileSystem.html) which provide an abstraction over files and file systems. That is to say, Hadoop encapsulates the stuff about distributed or local files and files systems and lets us work with Paths and InputFormats. This pretty much sums up most of the stuff in the commits.

Other than that, I added the XmlInputFormat. I tested with run-extraction-test and everything works. DistRedirectsTest passes. I added some docs too.

Please note that I have taken care to make the commits in a specific sequence. If you make your way from commit 4b9745f to commit d08417f it'll be easier to understand what's going on.
