Add support for alternative build file/directory naming scheme
Now the build/*.build, buildfile, and .buildignore filesystem entries in a project can alternatively (but consistently) be called build2/*.build2, build2file, and .build2ignore. See a note at the beginning of the Project Structure section in the manual for details (motivation, restrictions, etc).
