Add support for RST parsing

It would be very useful to expose discourse parsing.

Can you clarify a bit?

Dependency parses are included for each Sentence contained in the Document returned by a call to an annotate endpoint.

Ah, I see the issue name has RST. Do you mean discourse parsing?

Yeah, sorry

processors-server keeps two processor instances in memory: FastNLPProcessor and BioNLPProcessor. When initializing both using the withDiscourse parameter, memory consumption exceeds 3GB (I think the server probably needs 5GB+ to function when discourse is enabled).

Because that sort of memory requirement is prohibitive for many users, maybe the solution is to make this aspect of the server configurable, so that one can easily run the server with or without support for discourse parsing.
