[Framework] Modify resolver to be self-contained with respect to fragment 
handling
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: FELIX-2858
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-2858
             Project: Felix
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: framework-3.0.9
            Reporter: Richard S. Hall
            Assignee: Richard S. Hall
             Fix For: framework-3.2.0


Currently, the resolver does not handle fragments or even know about them at 
all. The resolver state, which is an external entity handles this. This 
approach limits reuse of the resolver since it is not self-contained. The 
resolver should be modified so that it directly processes fragments. To do 
this, it will have to create wrapped modules to synthesize hosts with attached 
fragments. This is similar to what currently happens in the resolver state. The 
main difference is that the resolver state does this at bundle install time, 
which is more efficient. A self-contained resolver will have to do it every 
time there is a resolve involving fragments, so it might be less efficient.
