Description

In conjunction with MINIFI-422 (bringing MiNiFi into the NiFi codebase), it would be necessary to allow a NiFi build to run without having the GUI and REST API components required. For normal NiFi releases, the GUI would be included in the assembly, but this Jira proposes to reorganize and refactor the framework code to allow NiFi to run flows and such without requiring the web bundle.
