[hibernate-dev] Hibernate ORM : master, metamodel, 4.3 and 5.0

[Steve Ebersole]

I finished getting the 4.3 branch created, 4.3 Final tagged/released 
and the work on master CR2..HEAD ported.

Unfortunately I messed up the last part.  And the way I messed it up 
makes it look like 4.3 Final includes CR2..HEAD, but it certainly does 
not (the tag does, but I mean the released artifacts do not).
