ZPM to support %SYS module install

Hi,

Issue: Many applications need some initial % data pointers (global nodes) and initial routine(s) to check the environment or to start a background job, etc. InterSystems IRIS offers the %SYS database with its %ZSTART, ZSTU and ZMIRROR.

Enhancement Request: ZPM should allow a user to define %SYS installation modules so that if I needed to set a couple of application settings in a ^Global and run some initial code as the system comes up (ZSTU, %ZSTART, ZMIRROR), I could wrap those things in a ZPM module for %SYS.

Some links that may be useful: ZSTU %ZSTART and %ZSTOP ZMIRROR

This ends up becoming a release blocker because there are a lot of community packages that should be described in this way (the main set of differences between the master and v1 branches)

The v0.9.0 implication here ends up being covered better by #470 - pushing the actual SystemRequirements aspect of this to v1.
