[cdi-dev] Duplicate javax.annotation packages and Java 9

[Antoine Sabot-Durand]

I was not talking about CDI specifically: the spec doesn't have package
collision with JDK 9. I'm talking about the EE4J platform since there are
collision with javax.annotation and probably a few other collision between
jdk9 module and packages in EE4J specs.
