Added the build script.

Fixed handling of a specified date interval for the x-axis in TimeSeries.  It turns out, the problem was the child get_x_values was not being called because I was calling the parent get_data_values( 'x' ) explicitly in Plot.py.
Generalized the data_max and data_min operations.
Fixed get_time_range method to properly return both end points.
