Initial contribution of BAR Installer
This contribution is offered to Apache Felix on behalf of Intel Corporation
who funded its development.
This is a plugin for File Install that implements an ArtifactInstaller for
Bunder ARchive (BAR) files. A BAR is a format representing units of
functionality implemented as a collection of OSGi bundles. It includes use of
the OSGi resolver API to check consistency and permits overlapping resources
from multiple installable units.
For full documentation and motivation see the [installer
README](fileinstall-plugins/installer/README.md).
Note that we are still working on some testing issues but I wanted to raise
this PR early while these issues are being resolved, in order to open
discussion with Felix committers about the contribution and to address any
large-scale changes that may be required before acceptance. Thank you!
