Description

Currently, the module create signature looks like

T* create(const Parameters&);

The proposal is to change the signature to look like:

struct ModuleInfo {
  Option<Parameters> parameters;
  Option<master::Flags> masterFlags;
  Option<slave::Flags> slaveFlags;
};

shared_ptr<T> create(const ModuleInfo&);

As a side effect, it would require us to expose master/agent flags in public headers.
