Deploy modules while using filesystem will give an error

[peetkes]

When you prefer using the filesystem for developing on your local system, you will get an error as soon as you try to create rest extensions and deploy them to the database.
In local.properties I have:
app-modules-db=filesystem
modules-root=location of roxy/src/ folder
All works like it should,until you create a rest extension and deploy it with ml local deploy modules

The error message I got is:

Loading REST extensions from /Users/pkester/Development/git/kb-test/rest-api/ext

ERROR: 500 "Internal Server Error"
ERROR: <rapi:error xmlns:rapi="http://marklogic.com/rest-api">rapi:status-code500/rapi:status-coderapi:statusINTERNAL ERROR/rapi:statusrapi:message-codeXDMP-UPDATEFUNCTIONFROMQUERY/rapi:message-coderapi:messageXDMP-UPDATEFUNCTIONFROMQUERY: xdmp:apply(function() as item()*) -- Cannot apply an update function from a query.

If you are using rest extension you have to use a modules database. Even if we were to deploy the rest extensions to the modules db it would not work because the appserver is pointing to the filesystem.

Worth detecting when this is being tried and reporting an error? If app-type=rest or hybrid, and app-modules-db=filesystem, @logger.error("Ain't gonna happen").

Yeah. Good idea.
