Deprecation of DSL Extensions in favour of Dynamic DSL generation

[Oliver Gondža]

Hey, I have noticed the extension points to Job DSL plugins are deprecated and considered replaced by Dynamic DSL[1]. I wanted to introduce Job DSL support into a plugin, though I have several questions on how to do this.

- What "extension" functionality is actually deprecated? All of Extending the DSL[1]?

- Are there any details on how to lay out classes/constructors/setter to play nice with Dynamic DSL generation? I am doing pretty much trial and error of code changes, running DSL test and consulting API viewer.

- How to contribute text documentation for API viewer with Dynamic DSL generation?

Thanks!

I think adding support for new plugins was deprecated. Anything that doesn't already have some support should use the dynamic dsl. 

I can't remember exactly how the syntax works, but I think it has something to do with the structs plugin.

The api viewer for your jenkins instance (https://your.jenkins.installation/plugin/job-dsl/api-viewer/) should show the dynamic DSL if the plugin is installed.

Yeah, that is how I approached that for now. I was hoping there is more
efficient way to go.
