Added best practices of build version incrementing

Referencing http://www.ibmpressbooks.com/articles/article.aspx?p=519946 default.properties was added
as well as build.properties(now used for overiding values in default.properties). Using the new
buildinfo.properties file which is created dynamically to track the build number and build date.

Also added a few comments and spaces between tasks to make the file easier to read. Changed .gitignore
to ignore the buildinfo file not the build file.
