[ODE] Implementing a new joint

[Patrick McColgan]

For a similar character avatar I use an AMotor  to stop rotations about 
all three axes.

There's a small fix in the Unstable branch for the AMotor and you need 
to use the 'UserMode', it took a bit of checking but I've found it to be 
very stable (keeps a capsule upright).

There's also a few posts about setting up the AMotor if you search the 
mailing list.
