Description

Currently communication between bootstrap and minifi-server is not straightforward. There are a couple of classes and methods responsible for this located in various places in the codebase.

The goal is to collect these into a separate module, decouple them from both bootstrap and minifi-server. Define the protocol correctly (no magic strings) and define the boundaries eg how bootstrap and minifi-server should interact with the communication module.
