This is a proposal to add a new mechanism for configuring Middlewares, directly from the component YAML instead of the Configuration CRD.

Each middleware would support the optional priority property via which the ordering can be determined in which a middleware components should be applied to a pipeline.

Another property should be pipelineType with values httpPipeline and appHttpPipeline at this time.

This also will allow scoping of middleware components to individual apps in Kubernetes without having to rely on a global configuration which may be invalid for an individual app.
