agent DynamicCapability

Test if a capability can be added at runtime.

DynamicCapabilityAgent An agent that adds itself a new capability at runtime. Also creates a beliefset reference to access a beliefset of the included capability.

Usage: Use e.g. the conversation center to send request messages to this agent.

"translate english_german dog" -> no message event matches
"add capability" (adds a translation capability)
"translate english_german dog" -> sends back an inform with dog - Hund
"remove capability" (removes the translation capability)
"translate english_german dog" -> no message event matches

Use the BDIViewer to observe how the capability and the beliefset reference get added and removed.
