Description

It is always a good practice to specify all the dependencies directly used (classes are imported from) by our modules. We have a couple of issues where classes are imported from transitive dependencies. It makes hard to validate the actual dependency tree and also may result in using wrong versions of classes (see PARQUET-2038 for example).

It would be good to enforce to reference such dependencies directly in the module poms. The maven-dependency-plugin analyze-only goal can be used for this purpose.
