Version info as part of the jmod filename?

Right, Erik has a fair point and it's good to discuss these practical 
matters. I believe dpkg-deb is similar in that it usually generates 
package_version_arch.deb into the directory, at least when an archive 
isn't specified.

It wouldn't be hard to specify the output file name to the jmod tool but 
that would require the make file rename it, and would be somewhat 
fragile as it won't fail when the version is out of sync.  So although 
having the version number in the make file and the module-info.java is a 
bit annoying then there is at least the potential to have it fail when 
get they out of sync (assuming of course that something depends on the 
.jmod file).

For this case, but it is possible to compile multiple modules together too.
