Description

After splitting and refactoring the Maven SCR Plugin (see FELIX-2669) the SCR Annotation library versions prior to the imminent 1.4.0 release, that is 1.3.0 and before, do not cause the DS and Metatype descriptors to be created because the library is missing the AnnotationTagSupport classes moved from the Maven SCR Plugin to the SCR Annotation library.

Therefore the generated descriptors may be incomplete and thus the resulting bundle unusable.

So the build should probably fail if we can assume with high probability that the resulting bundle is not complete. We do this by having the Maven SCR Plugin ensure that the SCR Annotation library, if used, is at least of the 1.4.0 version about to be released.
