Consider moving jspm packages folder

[alexweber]

Currently being kept in src/lib, perhaps it's better off outside the src dir.

@alexweber: I like the idea of keeping installed jspm packages outside the src folder – at the same level as node_modules. But it seems it wouldn't be possible, then, to serve the application from the src folder while developing – am I wrong?

@alexweber @dalgard How about reroute jspm_package directory? I've added a middleware like below and reroute jspm_packages as static directory and it seems to work fine.

gulp.task('connect', function() {
  connect.server({
    root: global.paths.src,
    livereload: true,
    middleware: function(connect, opt) {
      return [
        connect().use('/jspm_packages', connect.static('./jspm_packages'))
      ]
    }
  });
});
