Title: Execute operations

Describe the issue:
The example in the documentation, which is invoking /execute endpoint by using Command API is not valid for BPM Suite 6.0.2. We have seen customer complaining about this and even for 6.0.1.

-- it is very hard to read
-- you can't just drop it in your environment and run it
-- it does not authenticate
-- it is not using BPM Suite 6.0.2 API, there has been minor changes and the code is simply not compatible with 6.0.2 libraries

I have come up with a verified example for BPM Suite 6.0.2

Suggestions for improvement:

Review my example (attached)

 - it includes self-contained java application, which can be just drop into the JBDS and run
- it includes productized BPM libraries 6.0.2 
- it includes community RestEasy (!!)
- it is using StartProcessCommand for kicking off the process. Start parameter is provided and it is a complex object not a primitive type (common use case).

What are the prerequisites for this example run?

There is a dependency in the pom.xml
		<dependency>
			<groupId>org.redhat.gss</groupId>
			<artifactId>executeProject</artifactId>
			<version>1.0</version>
		</dependency>

I have created this project in the business-central with the GAV above.
It includes just two things:
1) process definition looks like this

2) The model

Reusing the model created in data modeler in your client application by adding it as maven dependency is *prefered* way.

All you need to do is to create this project in the business-central and build&deploy, it will be automatically installed into your local repository and available for use in your client rest application. I am also attaching the git repository if needed, but the assets are very simple.
