Train 2011.12.01 hotfix 601 - closes #601

* Invert the meaning of the "silent" flag.
* Change channel comment location so that it is in a place that makes sense.

Adding the following API under the BrowserID.internal namespace:
* setPersistent - set the "log in automatically" flag for a site.
* get - get an assertion using the same signature/semantic meaning as navigator.id.get.

Add internal_api.js to compressed build.
