Add support for MicroProfile #152

Add support for MicroProfile APIs in all sensible aspects of the Jakarta Starter.

My opinion on this topic is, that adding microprofile support is actually trivial. You get these practically for free, as all servers support this. Adding the following maven dependency is all we need:

<dependency>
<groupId>org.eclipse.microprofile</groupId>
<artifactId>microprofile</artifactId>
<version>${microprofile.version}</version>
<type>pom</type>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>

And now a developer can make use of Microprofile-Config or the Health API which are really great features. Jakarta-EE should not sweep such powerfull options under the carpet.

The current consensus is that this is a low-priority item. We will probably not tackle this until the Jakarta Starter is significantly mature.
