Weakly typed integration - runtime integration

What's involved

• configure DataSource pointing to the service spec (service metadata) / endpoint (URL to talk to).
• create service proxy for typescript developers. i.e. collection of methods you can invoke without any type checking. Checking only happens at runtime.
• Have base class for service that can declare dependencies on DataSource. The service instance will used in the controllers.
• In LB3, we have a dummy model that associates with the datasource that functions as service proxy. In LB4, we want to get rid of that dummy model.

Questions to answer

Quick spike/ PoC (1 or 2 days)

• create a base service class and declare dependencies on DataSource (configure to use REST/Swagger connector)
• implementation will be delegated to the juggler implementation
• Can reuse REST connector example as the user scenario
• Also consider Proxy in JavaScript: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Proxy
