 * Interface that those Jackson components that are explicitly versioned will implement.
 * Intention is to allow both plug-in components (custom extensions) and applications and
 * frameworks that use Jackson to detect exact version of Jackson in use.
 * This may be useful for example for ensuring that proper Jackson version is deployed
 * (beyond mechanisms that deployment system may have), as well as for possible
 * workarounds.
