Prow Pipeline Controller

This is a replacement controller for the original Prow pipeline controller intended for use within Jenkins-X. In contrast to the original controller, this version is aware of the Jenkins-X pipelinerunner controller available in jx and triggers pipeline runs by making HTTP requests to this controller.

The Prow Pipeline Controller is used and configured as part of the Prow Helm charts for Jenkins-X.
