[jbosstools-dev] Refactoring openshift-restclient-java to depend upon OkHttp client

[Jeff Cantrill]

The current release of the openshift-restclient-java, for not so obvious
reasons, depends on no less then 3 libraries to provide the underlying
communication to the cluster server.  The following PR
https://github.com/openshift/openshift-restclient-java/pull/179 unifies
this dependency to a single client which is based on OkHttp.  We are
looking to make this change to:

* Provide a common way to make REST calls
* Simplify the authorization semantics to an openshift cluster
* Simplify the pattern of making REST calls over what is done today
* In future, take advantage of its SPDY support to move away from the oc
binary dependency
* Put us in a better position to move to the Fabric8 client (if that ever
happens)

Any comments or objects are welcome
