[ODE] Flat cylinder geom come to life!

Hi Adam,

     Yeah, it would be good if you take it. I will do it but maybe not
     so soon because I hardly find enough free time now :(

     I'm using sort like test_boxstack for my test case. It seems to be
     fairly good. And yes, for fast real life demonstration of
     cylinder, test_buggy is really fit.
