Closing out still more open issues

I agree that the issues marked with an '*' should be deferred.

As i have already said, i think that allowing to have different versions of the same module inside the same ModuleLayer should be possible but this should be solved at the VM level and not at the JDK level.

The current class file format allows to specify version of the dependencies, so there are enough pieces in place to let people to experiment and try to come up with a solution.

regards,
Rémi
