MC-9710 Export Folders as JSON (no Models)

[adjl]

Allow Folders (sans Models) to be exported as JSON.

• Implement the exportFolder controller action and corresponding endpoint
• Write functional tests in mdm-core and mdm-testing-functional to verify export of simple and nested Folders as various roles
• Write integration tests and expected-output files to verify export of Folders with facets and child Folders
• Create FolderJsonExporterService, FolderExporterProviderService and generic ContainerExporterProviderService for abstraction/extension, e.g., for Classifiers

[adjl]

Should I also add an export test to FolderInterceptorSpec?

Mostly good, just a few small changes needed, see the comments.

[adjl]

I don't quite understand why this is expected to appear in mdm-plugin-datamodel and not mdm-core.

[olliefreeman]

thats a good question, it should appear in both and in all plugins extending core

[olliefreeman]

it does... see the comment later on

[olliefreeman]

All issues fixed, just 2 new ones..

def is technically bad as we should type to a class, however its not evil and i actually prefer def over Object. we certainly shouldnt be replacing def with Object

@adjl you need to run gradle licenseFormat to add the missing headers to the new files ... run it and commit it with the commit message add missing headers

[olliefreeman]

you also need to add @Slf4j to MauroDataMapperServiceProviderFunctionalSpec which will reveal the failing 'test get exporters' message and the expected json.

ANY MauroDataMapperServiceProviderFunctionalSpec will need the folder exporter added to the list of expected json, and in mc-9714 the importer will need to be added
