Update Sage Live CD (with sage version 5.3)

[Emil Widmann]

Hi,
I updated the Sage Live CD. It has now Sage version 5.3. I also worked on the functionality, new additional features:

- full html docs for en, de, fr, ru and tr
- smaller size, its again below 600 MB (stripped executables and libs)
- optional small preconfigured sage server (20 worker accounts)
- sshd
- replaced busybox less with full version, so sage-help in commandline works
- added Gnutls for certificats (certtool)

You can use unetbootin or other tools to create bootable USB sticks,  or test it in a virtual machine (just attach iso, you don't even need a virtual HD).

I used the following  before make to achieve highest possible compatibility on a wide range of machines:

export SAGE_FAT_BINARY="yes"
export SAGE_PORT="liveCD"
export SAGE_INSTALL_GCC=no
export SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH=base
export SAGE_MATPLOTLIB_GUI=yes
export SAGE_BINARY_BUILD="yes"

I tried this on VirtualBox on Mac, and it worked very nicely.  Good work!  Looks like Harald already updated the download page, too :)
