Provide JAR for deploying a DHF project without gradle

[daveegrant]

Some customers do not allow gradle to be installed in their production environment. For one project (Customer = DTIC), a Java app was written which uses the DHF JAR to provide the ability to deploy the project in the customers Prod environment. The Java app is also used to run DHF flows.

With DHF 5.2, it appears that a JAR will be provided that can be used to run a flow and doesn't depend on gradle. This feature request is for that JAR to also support performing a deployment of a project assuming the project files are available.

@sbayatpur @aroach337 This would not be difficult to achieve. I think it's something to consider for 5.3 if we get more requests from it.

@daveegrant Is it reasonable to assume that the project files would include the gradle.properties file?

@rjrudin Yes, the <gradle.properties> file would be available. Along with any environment specific properties files (e.g. - gradle-prod.properties).
