Hi Karel,

I pushed the first version of the Spatial chapter into the new User Guide.
I basically integrated the hibernatespatial.org documentation and changed
all examples to match the current API in Hibernate 5.

You can build the User Guide as follows:

$ cd documentation
$ gradle rUG
$ ls target/asciidoc/userguide/html_single/Hibernate_User_Guide.html

Let me know what you think and what else do you suggest we should add.

Thanks,
Vlad
