[jboss-as7-dev] AS7-1807

[Jason T. Greene]

I think we are intermixing maven modules and jboss modules here. I think 
it's very desirable that we have a *different* jboss module per product 
so that there is no delta required between the AS7 core platform build 
and the product. However we still need that common name, so a jboss 
module alias works well.

The code inside of AS somewhere does 
moduleLoader.findModule("org.jboss.as.product") or whatever, and we just 
have one tiny module.xml that aggregates the community product module.

None of this though needs a maven module, it can all just be built from 
build. The product process simply has to replace that one "alias" 
module.xml.
