Perfect example where poor packaging makes the unpackaged files test
worthless.  Missing files fixed.  Switched to shared library.  Split lib
into separate package.

- Switched to using %makeinstall rather than installing by "hand."
- Added missing files libiw.so, libiw.so.25, iwlib.h, and iwevent
- Adding missing documentation (man pages and %doc dir things)
- Split library.
- Dynamically link the tools to the library rather than static.
