[kepler-dev] renaming Loader and test installers

[Christopher Brooks]

Hi Chad,
Congrats on getting the installer out!

I updated some of the Ptolemy models so that the text looks better under
Kepler.  Will you be making future releases from the SVN head or
is there a branch that should be updated.  If the branch should be
updated, then there will be a bunch of Ptolemy changes that need to go
in.
