This corrects an annoying bug that had the system crash and burn on first start-up due to a race condition in service initialization, where the services were attempting to access the database before it was properly migrated.
A fix was in principle already in place, but it was running too late and did not prevent attempts to access the as-yet uninitialized database. Move the first boot check into the MainClass instead of the Service constructor.
The change also adds more appropriate docker dependencies to the services to fix rare errors resolving the hostname of the database.
This is necessary as we use zookeeper to orchestrate first-time startup of the services, to ensure that the database is properly migrated by the control service before anything else is permitted to start.
Look, this will make the git history look funny, but trimming unnecessary depth from the source tree is a very necessary sanity-preserving measure when dealing with a super-modularized codebase like this one.
While it makes the project configuration a bit less conventional, it will save you several clicks every time you jump between modules. Which you'll do a lot, because it's *modul*ar. The src/main/java convention makes a lot of sense for a non-modular project though. This ain't that.
