There is no JIRA ticket yet.  Perhaps we can agree on an approach before
writing the ticket.

Mark, I was thinking the custom nar would inherit from the
nifi-standard-nar instead of the standard-services-api-nar.  A processor
isn't a service, so I didn't even think of standard-services-api-nar.  Then
just "class MyPutJMS extends PutJMS" inside my custom nar and go.

I'm sure there are all kinds of approaches we could take here, so if the
community wants to implement something fancier, that's cool.
