Java module-info.java #64

Description

@nhojpatrick

I'm happy to do the work but after some discussion at apache commons, I would propose a major version bump for adding module-info into typetools.

  1. Any downstream projects using class scanners potentially won't understand module-info so will break projects.
  2. I propose using Multi Release Jar, so;
    2.1) Make min java version requirement 1.8
    2.2) Update build to have src/main/java11/module-info.java (only that single java11 file)
    2.3) Compile module-info.java into META-INF/versions/11/module-info
  3. I don't propose supporting any other versions apart from 1.8 and 11, which are both LTS, afterwards others could be added if useful.
  4. I'm happy to do the alterations and submit a PR for v1.x.x

Thoughts?
