Builds a deployment artifact that contains WebCatalog objects.

All WebCatalog objects are supported for both full and partial package-based deployments. If partial package-based deployment is used, all objects are populated into a single object type called WebCatalog Objects, and file extensions are added to map to the underlying OTBI object type (e.g. Folder, Data Model, Analysis, Report, etc).
