Description

The current (5.0) version of bin/post assumes JSON (and XML) are in Solr command format, eg. bin/post -c collection1 data.json and that the URL to post to is /update.

This issue is to improve/evolve bin/post so that it can post to /update when the data is in Solr XML or JSON format and to /update/json/docs for arbitrary JSON.
