MINIFICPP-49 Added initial implementation of NiFi expression language This implementation covers core language syntax such as embedding ${expressions}, referencing attributes, calling functions ${expr:toUpper()}, function arguments, quoted attribute IDs. It has a very minimal implementation of functions (hostname() and toUpper()), and minimal integration with processor properties (PutFile directory and InvokeHTTP URL). The intent is to expand coverage and integration over future commits. It is implemented as an extension and can be entirely disabled at compile time with no memory or compute impact in the resulting binary when compared with before this PR. The cmake code is somewhat, but not much, different than other extensions due to the API touching ProcessContext. -- Thank you for submitting a contribution to Apache NiFi - MiNiFi C++.
