[jboss-as7-dev] NPE in POST_MODULE processors

It depends on what you mean by "fully functional". We have OSGi on the 
product sheet and I always have to use many words when I talk about the 
states that a bundle goes through and their respective deployment 
phases. At the end of the day these are of course just names, but IMHO 
we might as well use the standard terminology when it comes to 
modularity. The most obvious case is "A module gets INSTALLED", which 
for folks who know the standard means "valid metadata - known to the 
runtime - not (yet) resolved - no classloader"

Here again my suggested mapping <https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-3585>

STRUCTURE         =>   STRUCTURE

PARSE             =>   PRE_INSTALL
REGISTER          =>   INSTALL
                   =>   POST_INSTALL

DEPENDENCIES      =>   PRE_RESOLVE
CONFIGURE_MODULE  =>   RESOLVE
FIRST_MODULE_USE  =>   POST_RESOLVE

POST_MODULE       =>   PRE_ACTIVATE
INSTALL           =>   ACTIVATE
                   =>   POST_ACTIVATE

CLEANUP           =>   CLEANUP
