New CLI deployer should accept foreign JAR file not impl class
--------------------------------------------------------------

         Key: GERONIMO-449
         URL: http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-449
     Project: Apache Geronimo
        Type: Improvement
  Components: deployment  
    Versions: 1.0-M3    
    Reporter: Aaron Mulder
    Priority: Minor


The --driver option should take a JAR file not a driver class.  It's not 
obvious how to add a foreign driver to the CLASSPATH otherwise (because we use 
a teeny JAR which itself uses manifest Class-Path entries).  This option should:
 - prepare a classloader including the driver JAR and its manifest Class-Path 
entries
 - identify and load the DeploymentFactory impl listed in the JSR-88 entry in 
the manifest file (or if it's not there, give an informative error message)
 - register the DeploymentFactory (if the spec doesn't say it should do that 
itself)
