Development setup

[shaliko]

The goal is to get rid of the requirement for work with nightly on development setup.

My general setup for Ruby on Rails and Go lang app:

1) docker-compose.yml for development that will run few services required for development like postgres, redis, Elasticsearch. 2) DB seed task that will fill DB by data that is required by the application across all environments (development, production, staging). 3) DB sample task for populating the database with a small set of realistic sample data so that as a developer you can use the application without having to create a bunch of stuff or pull down production data.

So new developer just need run docker-compose up for start services (DB, queue, etc...) and run DB seed, DB sample.

1) We can configure docker-compose for Apinf that will start Api-umbrella, MongoDB, ElasticSearch, MQTT proxy, etc... 2) Write DB seed and DB sample tasks. 3) Probably for API-umbrella we can't create a proxy in DB sample task because getting API key require generate it from the browser, but for that case, we can provide small instruction. 4) Never touch Nightly in development.

Work estimate from @shaliko and @marla-singer : Step 1: 1 day Step 2: 1 day Step 3: 3-5 days, maybe more for API Umbrella setup

Needs to be verified that the step 1 will work for Windows developers. (Alternatively, Windows developers will use the current instructions for setting up development environment.)
