Update for automatic modules; new plain text:
"The represented module may have an explicit backing construct (either
source code or executable output) or may be created from implicit
information. The explicit source code construct for a module is
typically a module-info.java file (JLS 7.7). Implicit information is
used to model unnamed modules and automatic modules (JLS 7.7.1)."
