Description

Currently, the Request/Response objects locate at server-base project under org/apache/kylin/rest/request[response,model]. They are POJOs which are used to communicate between any REST client and Kylin Server. If someone wants to integrate Kylin by REST API, he has to import kylin-server library. The kylin-server is the project to host the Query/Job web server. This is library will introduce almost all kylin backend libraries indirectly(by pom dependency). But those are not the required components in client side. So I will suggest refactoring some REST code into standalone lightweight library, and make the client-server communication much easier.
