Refactor the DSL Interface about rulebook HOT 3 CLOSED

This is going to have some consequences for the DSL. The POJO rules should be unaffected.
Those who were using the DSL following the examples and the recommendations shouldn't much if any breaking changes. However, there is a possibility that some people using the DSL outside of the normal interface pattern could find breaking changes.

The good news is that this should be the last major refactoring of the DSL for quite some time, since this update will allow for easier extension of the DSL. Also, I don't expect it to grow too large, anyway.

That's the plan right now. I think there is probably some expectation that releases prior to 1.0 carry with them some level of uncertainty. That's easy to shield from the POJO Rules, less so from the DSL.

Any significant breaking changes will have the existing interface deprecated so that backwards compatibility is preserved.

There will be significant changes due to a few of things:

1. to make it super flexible for swapping in new algorithms for rules chaining
2. to separate the model (CQ) from the DSL (builder)
3. to get the RuleBook away from keeping a reference to a FactMap
4. to leave the door open for things like Immutable FactMaps (but still allowing Facts to change/be added/removed while execution was in progress)

POJO Rules should not change. And existing functionality will be deprecated, but still available.
