Trader demo

This demo brings up five nodes: Bank A, Bank B, Bank Of Corda, Logging Bank and a notary node that they all use. Bank A will be the buyer, and requests some cash from the Bank of Corda in order to acquire commercial paper from Bank B, the seller.

The Logging Bank node is present to demonstrate the usage of the "Configuring Responder Flows" feature of Corda described here
