KPM Pack should generate a web.config

[glennc]

The native module needs to find a bootstrapper assembly that will kick off the KRE. When packing an app we should generate/merge some web.config values to help find them. It would look like this:

<appSettings>
  <add name="kpm-package-path" value="../appdata/packages" /> <!-- OPTIONAL -->
  <add name="bootstrapper-version" value="1.0.3" />

  <add name="kre-package-path" value="../appdata/packages" />  <!-- OPTIONAL -->
  <add name="kre-version" value="1.0.3" />
  <add name="kre-clr" value="CLR|CoreCLR" />
</appSettings>

The names may change, but this is all the information that's required.

Some of that information looks suspect compared to the k.ini. Can you be explicit about what each property is used for?

See: https://github.com/aspnet/Home/wiki/DesignNote-Native-Module-Bootstrapping

The top section is to find the bootstrapper, the bottom section for the bootstrapper to find the KRE

The application base is missing. That's pretty fundamental to this all working
