[TYPO3-core] Documenting usage of Composer manifest

[François Suter]

Hi,

Just bumping up this message. As Ernest just said, messages get a bit 
drowned in Travis notifications ;-)

> Hi all,

> All system extensions now have a Composer manifest. I thought it would
> be a good idea to document this in Core APIs, but I must admit that I
> miss information about this.
>
> - should a developer include a Composer manifest in his/her extension?
> If yes, why?
>
> - what is the structure of the manifest, in particular the minimum
> information required? The naming conventions?
>
> - what is the relation between ext_emconf.php and composer.json?
>
> - is ext_emconf.php still needed? Is it planned to phase it out?
>
> Thanks in advance for the explanations.
>
> Cheers
