Add Automatic-Module-Name for JDK9 interoperability

[forax]

Hi,
FasterXML/jackson-core#397 add Automatic-Module-Name to core and databind but other projects like jackson-annotations were not updated.

Stephen Colebourne has started to list all projects that have a list an Automatic-Module-Name, as you can see only core and databind have been updated
https://github.com/jodastephen/jpms-module-names/blob/master/generated/module-maven.properties#L1

I personally need jackson-annotations and jackson-module-java8 so i will log a bug for these two modules but all modules should be updated IMO.

jackson-annotations actually got this for 2.9.1, I think; I need to think of what to do with jackson-bom since ideally I would drop patch revision, but in this one specific case there is a reason for dependency to later patch version..

As to other repos; you can add issues for repos that are missing this, but I thought that parent pom actually includes instructions to generate module name.
There definitely should be module names for other repose so I am not quite sure where discrepancy comes from: it is possible I guess that information is somehow incorrect. I think I did verify just that metadata entry is added in Manifest, but Oracle's tooling for pre-Java-9 hasn't allowed much other verification.

Looking at jars build for 2.9.6 for, say, java8 datetime, does show:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Automatic-Module-Name: com.fasterxml.jackson.datatype.jsr310
Bnd-LastModified: 1528839425523
Build-Jdk: 1.8.0_102

and similarly for base modules.

So to me it seems like automatic name is included.

Is Stephen's list generated from artifacts from Maven, or using some other means?

[forax]

yes,
the generator used for creating Stephen's list was not scanning Central for jackson, i've sent a pull request for that (jodastephen/jpms-module-names#20).

@forax Ah. That would explain it. Thank you for the follow-up, to make sure Jackson components' information is up to date.
