Generate SDK build alongside the jar for containers

The SDK contains the connector's common models that
the chaincode developers can utilize. If the connector's
flag is set to parse the events, the events will be
parsed for common structure and utilized for Kafka
publishing.

The SDK can be later reused for other purposes.
