- Fixes #2003 properly - Instead of using 'bundle' packaging, use 'jar' packaging. This is more robust because some strict build tools fail to retrieve the artifacts from a Maven repository unless their packaging is not 'jar'. - All artifacts now contain META-INF/io.netty.version.properties, which provides the detailed information about the build and repository. - Removed OSGi testsuite temporarily because it gives false errors during split package test and examination. - Add io.netty.util.Version for easy retrieval of version information

You require the following to build Netty:
