METRON-396: Make Stellar function resolution happen via an annotation and
classpath search
At the moment, the only way to add a stellar function is to implement
StellarFunction and add the instance to the StellarFunctions enum. This is
deficient in a few ways:
* It requires you to modify Metron code to add a stellar capability
* It requires you to make metron-common depend on your project
* There is no way to enforce documentation of the function
Instead, we should create an annotation which will define:
* function name
* namespace
* description
* List of parameters
* return documentation
