WebappServletHost has the lowest ranking to favor host-jetty. Having a name attribute allows us to find the WebAppServletHost in the web application environment by name.

Ping, I'd still like to understand this change?

I'm still not sure I understand why the name is needed, why can't the
WebServletHost use the ranking like the OSGi ones?

I now removed the need to start the ServletHost in the module activator.
Multiple ServletHost implementations can be available in a Tuscany
distribution. We still need to pick one depending on the environment.

In the WebServletHost case, the web application wants to use WebServletHost.
I found that using a name as key is the simple way.

The OSGi world has a similar case where multiple services are registered
under the same interface. OSGi allows us to look up a particular instance using a filter (a query on the properties) or by default the one with the highest ranking. Actually, we use the OSGi service registry as the extension
point registry for the OSGi-enabled Tuscany runitme.
