Add Java 17 support to add new modules for java.time.*, java.util.UUID and java.lang.Record
In Java17 it's not allowed anymore to set values to final fields, instead new modules are created for classes like java.time.*, java.util.UUID and java records to instantiate the object in a non reflective way.
Modules can be extended to add new types.
JavaTimeModule maps LocalDate and LocalDateTime to an epochMillis long value, (and back)
UUIDModule converts the UUID type into a string (and back)
Record type uses the new Java 17 records to read and instantiate a record using Class.isRecord (will fail on java 11) and uses getRecordComponents()[].
