Command line parameters to publish.sh / publish.bat

• -nogen: don't generate the spec, just run the validation. (to use this, manually fix things in the publication directory, and then migrate the changes back to source when done. this is a hack)

• -noarchive: don't generate the archive. Don't use this if you're a core editor

• -web: produce the HL7 ready publication form for final upload (only core editors)

• -diff: the executable program to use if platform round-tripping doesn't produce identical content (default: c:\program files (x86)\WinMerge\WinMergeU.exe)

• -name: the "name" to go in the title bar of each of the specification
