Community modules adding gdal_translate based output formats to WCS and WPS
Description
Create two new community modules, gs-gdal-wcs and gs-gdal-wps with the aim to leverage the gdal_translate utility to support additional output formats in the WCS and WPS services, along the lines of what the OGR extension already does with ogr2ogr.
Considering the significant amount of overlap between the new community modules and the OGR extension modules, a preliminary step to this work will be to factor out a set of superclasses / utility functions from the OGR modules into a separate module that could then be shared by all modules aiming to invoke an external tool to do format conversion.
