Include metrics-lib's JavaDocs on the Metrics website

We should include metrics-lib's JavaDocs on the Metrics website, possibly at https://metrics.torproject.org/metrics-lib/*. We'll likely want to automate this using Ant and possibly a Git submodule. For that we could either build metrics-lib as part of metrics-web, or we could just generate the docs for metrics-lib's sources in metrics-web's build file. Once we have this Git-and-Ant magic in place we should update metrics-lib.jsp and link to the JavaDocs, once in the jumbotron and once more in the "Next steps" section.

A first suggestion:

Please find three commits here that implement the metrics-lib javadoc inclusion and prepare onionoo and collector web page integration (#21551 (moved)).

(I didn't run the war in tomcat. There was a white space warning for the servlets in some of the latest commits on master.)

I read the three commits, and they look good. But I failed getting submodules initialized. Can you maybe post the exact commands for cloning a new metrics-web repository and building the .war file? I may be missing an initialization command, but I can't figure out which. Thanks!

Thanks, for checking! I forgot to commit the bootstrap script and also found a bug. All is ammmended to the above branch.

Step by step: If the checkout wasn't recursive, run

website/src/main/resources/bootstrap-development.sh

Then add the lib folder under shared (this is nothing new). cd into website and run ant war. This should result in all javadocs being build, but only metrics-lib's javadoc is included in the war.

Great, that works! Merged to master. Thanks! Closing.
