For v 2.0+ we need to create an actual distribution package

[martindholmes]

In addition to supplying a sample config file with full comments, we should actually have a script which builds a distribution for end-users. We can exclude lots of bits and pieces such as the ci and jenkins folders, the documentation config file, and so on, making for a less cluttered package. We should also have a decent version of the built documentation, which needs to function locally (so can't have a search), but could point to the online version which does.
