Gemified apps production wrapper

Brain dump. /cc @skade

Gemified apps are an amazing asset.

They would be even better if we could provide a basic wrapper that would allow us to use them directly in production environments.

A basic structure would consist of a config.ru, confib/boot.rb, config/apps.rb, Gemfile and a Rakefile. The first three could even be combined in one.

Doesn't the generator generate an app with --gem ?

@Ortuna What Dario refers to is the following:

An old-school padrino project is two things, a wrapper and the app files. The wrapper is config.ru, boot.rb etc., the app is in app, models etc.

Currently, we only have a profile for the main app hosted along with the wrapper and a profile for a gem without the wrapper. What is missing is a way to generate a wrapper without the app skeleton, e.g. to exclusively host gemified apps.

Implemented.

Run it with padrino g project test --lean

Lean project does not generate initial application in app folder, it is intended to host gemified apps.
