renaming jqUnit

[Justin]

Hello,

I have completed the update to the standard version of qUnit.

For the most part you won't see any changes to how you wrote the unit  
tests. Almost all of the structure has remained intact. The main  
difference is that if you want to use the qunit style assertions, you  
no longer use the the jqunit namespace.  The most common use of  
qunit's built in functions, that I have seen, has been with the use of  
the "expect" function.

I have updated all of the test plans to now use the proper syntax.  
Please feel free to message me with any comments or questions.

Thanks
Justin
