Runnable service

A step of the Cloud application tree on Gradus, in the Environment setup area: First commit to first deploy.

Add a package manifest with a lockfile and one entrypoint that starts an HTTP server with a health route, reading its port from the environment, so the service runs locally with a single command.

Usually comes after: Language toolchain.

Leads to: Continuous integration, Unit tests, Routing & middleware.
