gholt abc6313e35 Alternate meta header removal method. 
Prior to this patch, you removed header metadata (such as
x-account-meta-name or x-container-meta-name) by sending the header
with no value. However, many tools such as curl will not send headers
with empty values.

This patch adds an alternate method for header metadata removal: Send
an x-remove-account-meta-name (x-remove-container-meta-name) header
with any value and the proxy will translate it to the original header
name with no value, indicating removal.

For safety, if you specify both x-remove-account-meta-name and
x-account-meta-name headers in the same request, the -remove header
will be ignored.

Swift
-----

A distributed object store that was originally developed as the basis for 
Rackspace's Cloud Files.

To build documentation run `python setup.py build_sphinx`, and then browse to
/doc/build/html/index.html.

The best place to get started is the "SAIO - Swift All In One", which will walk
you through setting up a development cluster of Swift in a VM.

For more information, visit us at http://launchpad.net/swift, or come hang out
on our IRC channel, #openstack on freenode.
