--------------------------------------

Thanks Paul for starting this.  This will be very useful going forward as people create various new storage plugins.

> The "Easy" framework allows third-parties to add format plugins to Drill with moderate effort. (The process could be easier, but "Easy" makes it as simple as possible given the current structure.)
> At present, no such "starter" framework exists for storage plugins. Further, multiple storage plugins have implemented filter push down, seemingly by copying large blocks of code.
> This ticket offers a "base" framework for storage plugins and for filter push-downs. The framework builds on the EVF, allowing plugins to also support project push down.
> The framework has a "test mule" storage plugin to verify functionality, and was used as the basis of an REST-like plugin.
