If the host app has to access it then it can *not* be in a bundle
(unless you plan to only access it via reflection or some other
proxy-like means in the host app).

What you will likely want to do is to include the interface in your host
app and then configure the framework to export the interface package via
the see bundle (see config property
org.osgi.framework.system.packages.extras). Then in your bundles you
import the interface package which will get it from the system bundle
(which will get it from the class loaded that loaded the framework and
is most likely the app class loader). Thus the host app and the bundles
inside the framework will all be using the same class definition.

Do *not* include multiple copies of the interface in the host and/or
bundles.

Keep in mind that as an OSGi newbie you are picking one of the more
complicated use cases as your starting point...
