Quickstart

API changes:

• FileDataStore interface created in order to prevent dependency on AbstractFileDataStore
• TypeNarrowed FileDataStoreFactorySPI to return a FileDataStore
• Removed need for MapContext to be configured with a CRS (it will now take it from the first layer with a crs provided)
• Allowed addLayer to take a null Style; a default will be created based on feature type

Go through a series of exercise with Style covering:

• fill
• stroke for outline
• point symbolizer to draw a symbol at the centroid of each country
• text symbolizer for labels
• raster symbolizer to gray scale the background

Bonus: SelectionDemo

Bring it all together and click on a map location to dynamically create a style showing the "selected" feature. This is how to do selection with out loading everything into memory.
