[Hawkular-dev] wildfly agent: jmx/jolokia and prometheus support

Would it be feasible to remove the jolokia/prometheus libs to thin the 
artifact, and just leave the code?   And then to use those *unsupported* 
endpoints add in some documented libs?   A fork is possible but if it 
withers and gets out of date it will just be baggage.

Another thought is to fork a version that only does jolokia and 
prometheus, and then that swarm agent would be really light.
