Add command to push custom actions to a remote instance #65

At the moment it is possible to develop custom actions using simple PHP files. These actions can be used through the deploy command on a local system. If Fusio runs in a Docker container it is not always possible to run such commands on the CLI. Because of this it would be great if we had a tool like (https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk-wskdeploy) to deploy custom action code to a remote Fusio instance. Basically this would mean that the user has to provide login credentials to the backend and then we send the action + file content to the remote instance.

This could result in some problems in case the action uses classes from a composer package which was not installed on the remote instance or if the action uses connections which are not available on the remote instance. Maybe such a command should always deploy the complete local Fusio instance including all actions etc. then we could check composer dependencies and compare the action and connections.

As alternative we could also try to persist the complete file content in the database and then write the content to a php file on demand. This has also the advantage that we have no hard file paths in our database.
