Adds support for extending Gerrit's web UI using either pure
JavaScript or GWT compiled with a modified CrossSiteIframeLinker.
To add code to the web UI plugins should bind WebUiPlugin to either
GwtPlugin or JavaScriptPlugin in their plugin's Web-Module. This
tells the UI bootstrap code where to find additional JavaScript to
inject into the page before displaying content.
For a GWT based plugin:
* com.google.gerrit.client.Plugin class should be extended,
* inheritance from com.google.gerrit.Plugin should be added
to gwt.xml,
* subclass of client.Plugin should be set as entry point,
* dependency from com.google.gerrit/gerrit-plugin-gwtui should
be added to pom.xml,
* webappDirectory option for gwt-maven-plugin should be
set to ${project.build.directory}/classes/static
For JavaScript based plugins the source code should be put into
the static/ directory of the plugin's JAR file.
Currently there are no extension points for either JS or GWT plugins
to interact with. Some will be added in a future commit. With this
commit only simple modification of the UI is possible, for example
calling window.alert() or adding extra elements to page contents
based on the existing element ids.
