Implement suggestions from Broc Seib:
* Update the group URL in all pages * Move xhr.send() down in the xhr.html samples * Add a note to xhr.html about content scripts * Link to Arne's new example of cross-origin xhr for a content script Also update the chrome.* APIs page to point to the dev version of the experimental page. Only the following files have changes besides the group URL change: api_index.html xhr.html messaging.html (added links to examples) content_scripts.html (added link to new example) I'll merge this change into all branches.
