Enable Middleware Support for Blueprint Groups (#1399)

* enable blueprint group middleware support

This commit will enable the users to implement a middleware at the
blueprint group level whereby enforcing the middleware automatically to
each of the available Blueprints that are part of the group.

This will eanble a simple way in which a certain set of common features
and criteria can be enforced on a Blueprint group. i.e. authentication
and authorization

This commit will address the feature request raised as part of Issue #1386
