Liberty Boost

[atosak]

per the "next steps" for Boost call on Tue Sept 11, we agreed the next steps are:
#1 - JEE/MP support in Boost
#2 - Gradle support for io.openliberty.boost:boost-maven-plugin:0.1 goals: debug, docker-build, docker-push, help, package, run, start, stop
#3 - start.openliberty.io (JEE/MP support is a prerequisite)

Please consider what the OL/boost equivalent is to this: https://twitter.com/FriedholdMatz/status/1040323501050224641

I'd like us to be able to tweet some simple steps to demonstrate how easy it is to get started using Boost.

This feature has no impact on the Liberty code base . The team is working on WAD and the goal is to have the WAD review in 4Q. This feature will be an incremental delivery most likely and it is not tied to any release.

The Boost source has been copied over to the MicroProfile sandbox. And Kevin and Emily were going to mention it during a call with the MicroProfile community.
