used a ASCII String <-> byte[] conversion wherever possible. Many Strings in YaCy are hashes which are pure ASCII (base64 hashes).
The new ASCII String <-> byte[] conversion method have less computation overhead than the UTF8 conversion.

This time it works like this:
- each peer provides its ranking information using the yacy/idx.json servlet
- peers with more than 1 GB ram will load this information from all other peers, combine that into one ranking table and store it locally. This happens during the start-up of the peer concurrently. The new generated file with the ranking information is at DATA/INDEX/<network>/QUEUES/hostIndex.blob
- this index is then computed to generate a new fresh ranking table. Peers which can calculate their own ranking table will do that every start-up to get latest feature updates until the feature is stable
- I computed new ranking tables as part of the distribition and commit it here also
- the YBR feature must be enabled manually by setting the YBR value in the ranking servlet to level 15. A default configuration for that is also in the commit but it does not affect your current installation only fresh peers
- a recursive block rank refinement is implemented but disabled at this point. it needs more testing
Please play around with the ranking settings and see if this helped to make search results better.

This servlet currently only serves for indexes to the web structure hosts. It can be tested by calling
http://localhost:8090/yacy/idx.json?object=host
This yacy protocol servlet is the first one that returns JSON code and that also shows index entries in a readable format. This will make the development of API applications much easier. This is also an example implementation for possible json versions of the other existing YaCy protocol interfaces.
The main purpose of this new feature is to provide a distributed block rank collection feature. Creating a block rank is very difficult if the forward-link data is first collected and then one peer must create a backward-link index. This interface provides already a partial backward index and therefore a collection of all these indexes needs only to be joined which is very easy. The result should be the computation of new block rank tables that all peers can perform.
To reduce load from peers this servlet buffers all data and refreshes it only once in 12 hours. This very slow update cycle is needed because the interface will be called round-robin from all peers once after start-up.
