* Made some progress on displaying the network state on an HTML page using jquery. It's ugly as sin, but it works.

* Fixed a bug in Storage->write_file() where the parent directory wasn't created if it was missing. Also removed passing the mode to the parent directory creation as the file mode rarely applies to the directory (ie: 644 breaks directories but is common for files).
* Changed Template->skin to return just the skin name, not the path.
* Updated scancore-update-states to write the network state information to both xml (for ScanCore) and JSON (for jquery) files.
