       * Ocsinventory::Agent::XML::Inventory can now write software inventory
         value of FILESIZE, FOLDER and PUBLISHER
       * processChecksum() and feedInventory() are called by Ocsinventory::Agent::XML::Inventory

       * the server responses are not parsed in the main script anymore
       * do not create an inventory if the server doesnn't need it
       * new parameters for the backend modules (run and check functions):
         - prologresp, the Ocsinventory::Agent::XML::Response::Prolog object returned by
	   the prolog
	 - storage: an hashref stored on the harddrive at the end of the execution of the module
       * a backend module without a run function is accepted now 
       * Inventory.pm: add addIpDiscoverEntry() to add host from the same network
       * @runMeIfTheseChecksFailed: new optional setting for Backend module
       * Ipdiscover is now a backend module and nmap can be used instead of ipdiscover
