[Devtools] Fabric8 futures

Hey Andrew,

exactly that idea is laid out in
https://github.com/fabric8io/fabric8-build where
we from the Fuse team (Nicola and myself) are planning to continue there
soon after we discussed this on our F2F next week. The idea to extract the
main abstractions (Generators, Enrichers, Profiles) into Maven independent
code, also fixing issues in the way how resources descriptors are created
(i.e. two separates passes through the pipelines for Kubernetes/Openshift
separately instead of running only for Kubernetes and the mangling that
resources as an afterthought for OpenShift objects).

This basic blocks should then be easily consumable by a Maven or Gradle
plugin, any IDE and also Arquillian (cc Alex).
Happy about any feedback and contributions.

regards ...
... roland
