Dependency problems: (RPMs, Python packages, Ruby Gems, Ansible modules, etc.)

Several of us on the platform team met recently to discuss dependency problems and came up with the following decisions:
- The appliance will carry dependencies for the application and any necessary debugging tools
- The application itself will declare all of its dependencies as it has in the past
- Application plugins will declare their dependencies in a way that the application / appliance build code can aggregate and install them
- Customer dependencies will need to be installed and maintained by customers since it is impossible for us to maintain and upgrade that list of dependencies.  We can not guarantee that any changes to these dependencies will not break scripts that are not maintained by the engineering team.

In this particular case, the customer can install the version of the savon gem that works for their scripting using the `gem install` command.
