remove spring boot support

[lburgazzoli]

Some time ago I've introduced support for Spring Boot but it is very hard to keep it at the same level of the Java main runtime as:

• the uber jar thing does not play very well with the concept of reusing image layers
• ensure support for multiple version of camel is not trivial

I do propose to deprecate spring boot support and remove it before 1.0

The uber jar could cause some trouble for us to some application level change release, but I'm not sure if the Java main runtime can handle the Dependency injection job well.

What if you do not package the spring boot as an fat-jar, but let it be a set of JARs on the classpath. Would that work better for SB.

However SB is a bit heavy by itself for the serverless world, but surely Pivotal is moving in that direction too, to slim down SB

This is what I already did however it is not so easy to support multiple version of camel with multiple version of sb. The other point is that having sb do not bring much value here
