The javax.annotation.Generated and annotation processors

Hello all,

related to https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8152842

I'm having to patch our annotation processors to avoid the @Generated
annotation, as I can't use the proposed workaround to use `-addmods
java.annotations.common`: our build also requires `-target 1.7` and
the two options are not compatible.

But I hope this will be only very short term? I'm only working this
around temporarily so that I can keep testing other more interesting
aspects of Jigsaw, but ultimately we'll need that annotation back.

Thanks,
Sanne
