Description

right now the deployer adds packages it can detect as used in a gbean to the Import-Packages. However it never populares Export-Package. This causes problems if the class is actually in the plugin/bundle we are constructing. If a bundle contains a class, if it lists the package in Import-Package, it won't satisfy the constraint itself unless the package is also listed in Export-Package.

So, we need to make the deployer list all the packages contained in the bundle in Export-Package. This might be a challenge in case there are embedded jars and a complicated Bundle-Classpath.

For now the workaround appears to be to move any classes used in gbeans to another bundle rather than packing them in a javaee app.
