Title: Reboot client rendering: React + Pixi.js + RxJS

Here is a complete refactoring of all the client side code:
- **game rendering ported to Pixi.js.** efficient lib, remain a simple lib focused on rendering only.
- **game UI ported to React**. very productive and maintainable :-)
- **also using RxJS for handling streams** (and being able to control the speed of the game simulation while getting a server stream)

I have also added a NPM / Browserify stack.
The code is in `client/` . You can build it with **npm install** and **grunt**.

*For the production, `./client/build.sh` should be use (it compiles the source for production). I've put the steps in the main deploy script.*

Features should be exactly identical as before (if not, it is a bug, I can fix it!),
+ added a play/pause feature + controlling the "speed control".

(play with arrows and space bar).

So now this refactoring is done, new features should be much more easier to add.

- My next idea is to make interpolation between game states to provide animations ;-)
