Solum-R2: Language Pack framework

Solum will implement a framework for self-serve pluggability of language/runtime stacks (note: evaluate Heroku buildpack compatibility)

Solum-R2.1 Pluggable buildpacks (P1)

As a platform developer, I want to be able to plug-in support for my desired language/run time stack into the platform (in the form of build-packs), without having to change the core platform code.

Solum-R2.2 Automatic detection of buildpacks (P1)

As an application developer, I can push my code to the platform, and have the platform automatically select the appropriate build pack to build+deploy my application.

Solum-R2.3 Combine buildpacks (P2)

As a platform developer, I want to be able to combine/chain multiple build-packs to create new top level build packs (for example, combine the basic Java build-pack with the "Setup Tomcat" buildpack to create a Tomcat container)

Solum-R2.4 Specify buildpack (P2)

As an application developer, I can explicitly specify the build-pack that the platform would use to deploy my code.
