Add support for rebranding jars
-------------------------------

                 Key: AS7-1807
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-1807
             Project: Application Server 7
          Issue Type: Feature Request
            Reporter: Jason Greene
             Fix For: 7.1.0.Alpha1

In order to make it easier for multiple products (EAP/SOA-P/etc) to consume the same common AS source code, we need to implement a plugability mechanism that allows version numbers, branding skins/themes, logos, etc to be easily replaced (preferably using a single jar).

The mechanism would involve supplying some kind of an argument to the bootstrap. For example:
java -jar \"$JBOSS_HOME/jboss-modules.jar\" \
       <snip>
       org.jboss.as.standalone
       -Djboss.brand.module=org.jboss.as.project-brand

We would then provide some API to get the module so that it can be used to launch services and/or perform resource loading.
