creation of a serverContext

[allanbowe]

To facilitate the automated deployment of apps such as data controller on SAS Viya we need the ability to auto-create server Contexts on which to run the Job Execution services.

The inputs for this would be:

• contextname - max 40 chars
• sharedaccount - a userid for the runServerAs property
• autoexec - a string of code lines (this gets executed by SAS on startup)

The following properties should be hardcoded (for now):

• Launcher Context - SAS Job Execution launcher context
• Identities - Authenticated Users
• reuseServerProcesses attribute - true

@allanbowe Will the inputs be provided on the command line or from the config JSON?

Closing as this has been implemented.
