Need a general configuration resource

[kbaltrinic]

@pghalliday, you were so gracious and expedient with fix for Issue 3 that am encourage to ask for one more feature. The jdbc resource is nice and all but it pretty limitted. It would be great if there was a general purpose resource for setting any value in the config file, or ideally a block of config values all at once (for example the sonar.security and ldap values for the LDAP plugin)

A simpler though less handy solution would simply be to expose the location of the install as node property so that we can get at the /conf directory ourselves without needing any magic knowledge of the internals of the sonarqube cookbook.

Now I am asking for the moon, but to completely round out this cookbook, a resource to set properties stored on the properties table in the database, and the ability to set encrypted property values would be killer features. ;-)

I have a tendency to only implement features I use, however I do accept merge requests ;) (also on vacation right now so won't likely look at this for a few days)

If I can find the time, I might possibly try my hand at this, but I warn you, when it comes to Ruby, I'm a complete hack.

@kbaltrinic You may define a list of arbitrary properties in node['sonarqube']['extra_properties'], where each key-value pair is a string.

"sonarqube": {
  "extra_properties": [
    "sonar.security.realm=LDAP",
    "sonar.security.savePassword=false"
  ]
}
