Description

Including the hbase-client module dependency and excluding Jackson dependencies causes the pure HBase query (run with HTableInterface) fail with Jackson ObjectMapper ClassNotFoundException.

This is due to org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.Operation having ObjectMapper statically initialized.

Moving ObjectMapper to a dedicated utility will help. The patch will be attached.
