Provide generic annotation scanning mechanism
---------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBCL-9
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBCL-9
             Project: JBoss ClassLoader
          Issue Type: Feature Request
          Components: Filters
    Affects Versions: JBossCL.2.0.0.Beta11
            Reporter: Ales Justin
         Assigned To: Ales Justin
             Fix For: JBossCL.2.0.0.CR1

We need to provide some generic class scanning
from the classloading module.

Only it has all the information about what is really in the classloader
e.g. it isn't necessarily everything reachable from the vfs roots, especially
when there is "subdeployment" within one of those roots.

Also there should be a way for other annotation parsers to plugin to the process
such that it is only done once rather repeating the task of parsing annotations
multiple times.

e.g. ejb3, servlet, webservices, aop, pojo, (jmx in future?), etc.
and creating the metadata such that some other deployer can potentially override it
