adding note about IBM JDK

After I spent a whole afternoon trying to make IBM JDK to work under IDEA, I decided to add a note on the doc so other would have a chance to have it working faster than I did.

### Note about IBM JDK on Idea
If you are running IBM JDK it may be a little tricky to get it working.
After you add the JDK to the IDE, add also the vm.jar specific to your platform under that jdk.
```
(e.g: JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/amd64/default/jclSC180/vm.jar
```
There's a [SOF Question](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27906481/can-intellij-14-be-used-to-work-with-ibm-jdk-1-7/32852361#32852361) about this that could be useful in case you are running into this issue.
### Style Templates for Idea
We have shared the style templates that are good for this project. If you want to apply them use these steps:

### Use _Project Working Sets_
Importing all ActiveMQ Artemis subprojects will create _too many_ projects in Eclipse, cluttering your _Package Explorer_
and _Project Explorer_ views. One way to address that is to use
[Eclipse's Working Sets](http://help.eclipse.org/juno/index.jsp?topic=%2Forg.eclipse.platform.doc.user%2Fconcepts%2Fcworkset.htm)
