METRON-1351 Create Installable Packages for Ubuntu Trusty
### Changes
This PR allows us to create DEB packages to simplify the installation of
Metron on a DEB-based platform like Ubuntu. I tried to follow as closely as
possible the current mechanism that we use for building RPM packages.
I added an additional profile `build-debs` that allows us to build the DEBs.
```
mvn clean package -Pbuild-debs
```
There is also a fairly complete README.md that explains how the process
works.
### Testing
1. Build the DEBs.
```
make clean package -DskipTests
cd metron-deployment
mvn clean package -Pbuild-debs -Pbuild-rpms
```
1. Take a look at the DEBs that were built.
```
$ find ./ -name "*.deb"
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-management_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-alerts_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-rest_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-maas-service_0.4.2.deb

.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-data-management_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-parsers_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-profiler_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-config_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-elasticsearch_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-solr_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-indexing_0.4.2.deb
.//packaging/docker/deb-docker/target/metron-pcap-backend_0.4.2.deb
```
1. Install the DEBs.
```
cd packaging/docker/deb-docker
docker build -t deb-docker .
docker run -it -v `pwd`:/root deb-docker:latest /bin/bash
dpkg -i target/*.deb
```
1. Capture the contents of what is installed by all of the DEBs. Capture
the output of running `tree` so that you can compare it to what the RPMs
install.
I have attached the output of what I get when doing this to this PR;
[ubuntu.txt](https://github.com/apache/metron/files/1560505/ubuntu.txt).
```
apt-get install tree
tree /usr/metron/0.4.2
```
```

1. Take a look at the RPMs that were built previously.
```
cd ../rpm-docker
$ find ./ -name "*.rpm"

```
1. Install the RPMs.
```
docker build -t rpm-docker .
docker run -it -v `pwd`:/root rpm-docker:latest /bin/bash
rpm -ivh RPMS/noarch/metron-*.rpm
```
1. Capture the contents of what is installed by all of the RPMs. Capture
the output of running `tree`. I have attached the output of what I get when
doing this.
```
yum install tree -y
tree /usr/metron/0.4.2
```
I have attached the output of what I get when doing this to this PR;
[centos.txt](https://github.com/apache/metron/files/1560504/centos.txt)).
1. Now I compare the two. In my testing, I have found that there is one
extra directory on the Ubuntu/DEB side of the house;
`/usr/metron/0.4.2/web/expressjs/etc`. This is just an empty directory that I
believe gets stripped out when the RPMs are packaged.
```
$ diff debs.txt rpms.txt
