updated the zexy help-system: all reference-patches (aka help-patches) are now to be found in the ./reference/ folder and are named <path>-help.pd;
removed a now superfluous class_sethelpsymbol from ./src/*.c;
the ./examples/ folder is currently empty but will eventually be filled with zexy real-world examples
