Description Steve Powell

*  Introduce 'kernel start' plug-in to control starts in kernel launch list
*  Plug-in specified in kernel properties file
*  Interface: plug-in passed list of  bundles to start, plus parameter string
for each bundle
*  Parameter can be 'start' (as today) or 'start@<user-parm>@...'
*  Default behaviour (no plug-in configured) is as today (but ignoring user
parms)
*  Mechanism provided for plug-in to start the bundles (synchronously, as
present)
*  Abort mechanism to be designed -- e.g. plug-in can throw an exception --
will shutdown.
