Description

• introduce proper Docker builds via Google Jib plugin
• we are doing too much in one build file (fineract-provider); ditching the WAR build and moving it to a separate module; this way Jib is properly working
• closely related: replace the Tomcat Cargo, because the setup is brittle and strictly speaking we are not testing our main deliverable (single JAR Spring Boot app), but the outdated WAR file
• external dependency on Mysql (i. e. our Github workflow can run on Ubuntu 20.04... or any other OS for that matter); and we can test on dev machines without a long laundry list of setup steps
