We are getting somewhere.

It now runs horde+nag+content from composer deployment - All I need to
do is provide a conf.php
Some workaround code is generated in config files,  can be eliminated
once some issues are solved.

The composer plugin generates the required tweaks in horde.local.php,
registry.local.php, registry.d/*
Horde lives on the same level as apps below webroot (example.com/horde,
example.com/nag, example.com/content)
js from horde base and libs is served from a js dir below webroot.

Known issues:

- sql migrations for libraries.
- phpunit tests
- Only install, no cleanup/rollback

How to test:

git clone https://github.com/maintaina-com/horde-deployment
cd horde-deployment
composer install
cp horde/horde/config/conf.php.dist horde/horde/config/conf.php

Webroot would be the first /horde dir level with /js, /horde, /nag, ...
Head for /horde in the browser to auto-login as admin. Create a propert
horde/config/conf.php, nag/config/conf.php etc from config dialog. Use a
pre-existing db schema.

Feedback welcome.
