Allow init-script to create string type credentials

For the automation of the homepage build, a string type credential
is needed to store the firebase API key. So far, there was no way
to automatically create this credential on startup.

Now a json-formatted file can be mounted into the container that
can contain user-password or string credentials, which will be loaded
into Jenkins on startup.

Providing jobs

This project uses Jenkins Jobs Builder [1] to generate jobs from yaml descriptor files.

To add new jobs reuse existing templates, defaults etc. as much as possible. E.g. adding a job to build an additional branch of a project may be as easy as adding the name of the branch to an existing project.

To ensure well readable yaml-files, use yamllint [2] to lint the yaml-files. Yamllint can be downloaded using Python Pip:

pip3 install yamllint

To run the linter, execute this command from the project's root directory:

yamllint -c yamllint-config.yaml jenkins/**/*.yaml

Yamllint will not fix detected issues itself.
