Description

hadoop-client-minicluster and hadoop-client-runtime try unsuccessfully to exclude module-info classes from dependencies. Over time, more and more jars have these classes.

The module-info classes are causing issue with CI builds. Builds can fail if there are more than module-inf class that is not excluded.

It seems better to exclude them all, especially since they will be affected by shading anyway.
