This PR adds helpers to the Python SDK to make writing operation functions easier. Operation functions use the same FunctionRunnerService RPC as composition functions, but they have different patterns for accessing required resources and returning output data. The new request.py module provides functions to get required resources (previously called "extra resources" in composition functions) and includes a helper specifically for accessing watched resources in WatchOperations. The response.py module gets new functions to set operation output and build resource requirements Signed-off-by: Nic Cope <nicc@rk0n.org>
We still add required_resources though, as the new (preferred) way to do the same thing. Signed-off-by: Nic Cope <nicc@rk0n.org>

I think it looks fine as a baseline, I'm sure there are additional helper methods that will be useful once we know what the usage patterns look like. I'm still stumbling over "required" resources, since they aren't always required, but naming is hard and we have more important things to worry about.
