BAW Standalone on Containers should support Content Cortex AI Services

For clients running BAW case management scenarios on container platforms (BAW Standalone on Containers 26.0.x), Content Cortex and Content Navigator are automatically deployed, and are the ideal access path for Case Related and additional Content Management use cases and scenarios. 

Neither BAW documentation nor CCx documentation state that and how a CCx AI Services deployment can be added to a BAW Standalone cluster. This might technically work by installing the AI Services by defining the scripts as a "Standalone AI Services" deployment, and then see how it can be achieved by adding the necessary plugins, artifacts and configuration settings to connect BAW to the Standalone AI Services. This manual approach however might be error prone and might lack the formal "supported" quality which is essential in regulated industries. 

Accordingly, BAW Standalone on Container deployments should officially support the Content Cortex "AI Services" addition. 

Ideally and preferred, this can be achieved by adding CCx AI Services to the installation scripts similar to the way this is achieved with CP4BA Scripts.

At least, we shall test and document the steps how to deploy and configure the CCx AI Services manually to an existing BAW Standalone on container deployment.
