Genson 1.3 release

[eugen]

I am glad to announce that Genson 1.3 has been released!

It comes with improved Bundles for Jodatime, Jaxb, Scala and Jsonp.
Now it is also much easier to register custom instances of Genson when using it in Jax-RS based apps.

Most changes shouldn't have any impact when upgrading except the default date serialization.
In previous versions, Genson was serializing dates as a string, starting with 1.3 dates are being serialized as a long.

Core

• Issue #49 - Wrap/Unwrap root values in an enclosing object
• Issue #51 - Deserialize single value as list
• Issue #50 - Improved deserializeValues usability
• Issue #45 - Genson annotations overriding Jaxb annotations
• Allowing user config to override bundle config
• Fix issue #53 - NPE in ASMCreatorParameterNameResolver

Scala

• Issue #52 - Supporting releases for multiple scala versions (2.10 and 2.11) using std versioning scheme.
