Generic Intent

[jamesmf]

It'd be cool if you could add a generic way to interface with your skills without having to bake the intent data/utterances (like "turn on the light") into the skill itself. That could make it a lot easier to create your own custom Things that are controlled by arbitrary utterances.

I imagine you could accomplish this by having a lead-in word that fires the intent as well, but is then stripped before being passed.

"Hey Mycroft, Assistant turn on the lights" or something similar (substitute "IoT", "Hub", "Home", "Fox", or some Mozilla IoT branding word for "Assistant").

That gets parsed into "turn on the lights" before being sent to MIoT
