Added new page and new JavaScript file:
This works like the IGB-to-Galaxy bridge http://bioviz.org/igb/galaxy.html
How the Galaxy to IGB bridge works:
Galaxy users click IGB links in their Galaxy History. Galaxy shows them IGB links when a file in their History matches a file type IGB can load. The link goes to a Web page on the BioViz.org Web site. That page is: http://bioviz.org/igb/galaxy.html.
When users hit this page coming from Galaxy, javascript tests whether IGB is running by querying localhost on a port IGB is listening to. If IGB fails to respond, the javascript shows a message asking users to launch IGB and then refresh the page.
Then, the JavaScript hits another localhost URL (IGB endpoint) sending information about the files available via HTTP from Galaxy. IGB then opens new tracks for those files.
