Crate micro_kit

#Micro-Kit

The Micro-Kit module is meant to be a curated collection of crates (Re-Exported) and helper functionality to build RESTful micro-services with standardized logging, healthchecking, metrics, and configuration

The motivation for the module is from Dropwizard, a collection of java libs that help quickly build standardized RESTful applications. This kit is nowhere close to as useful (yet) but we can aspire!
