Install KnowRob in a rosbuild workspace (deprecated)

Rosbuild has been the main build system of ROS from its beginning until about 2012. Older versions of KnowRob have thus been based on this buildsystem. This version is recommended if you use KnowRob on ROS Groovy and earlier. Please note that development of this branch has stopped in Summer 2014.
