Description

For a starter, module descriptors can be automatically generated by jdeps utility.

There are two choices.
1. generate "open" modules which allows reflective accesses with --generate-open-module option
2. generate non-open modules with --generate-module-info option

Which is the better - not fully sure, but maybe 2 (non-open modules)?

Also, we need to choose proper module names - just using gradle project path for it is OK?
