Summary: Javadoc options

Initial Comment:
A user should be able to choose the various command-
line flags that are sent to javadoc, at the very least what 
access to give javadoc (public/private etc).  The simplest 
option that comes to mind is just to have an editable 
string in the preferences, but this could lead to 
unforseen problems (since a user could enter anything 
into such a field).

Alternately, the user could be given a more useful dialog 
when javadoc is requested.  Such a dialog would include 
access levels, whether or not to include source roots, 
and output directory, possibly with "browse" or some 
similar option that would then bring up the current 
JFileChooser.

This would be much more robust than the current 
interface, plus it would workaround JFileChooser's 
annoying requirement that you explicitly create new 
folders before choosing them as the output directory (if 
the user types the name in a text field, we can go ahead 
and create the directory).
