Initial commit for kubernetes participant in CLAMP

Spring application that exposes REST end points for installing, uninstalling, onboarding
and deleting of helm charts to/from local directory.
CL runtime can also trigger installation and uninstallation of helm charts from both local and configured helm repositories.

Junits will be committed as a separate review.
