Updating Joda dependency (for Joda module) to 2.9, for Jackson 2.11?

[Tatu Saloranta]

Up until now Jackson Joda module (jackson-datatype-joda) has worked
with most if not all Joda 2.x versions, even if nominal dependency has
been to some specific version (Jackson 2.4 depended on Joda 2.2, but
2.10 now depends on 2.9.9). But there is an issue to resolve:

https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-datatype-joda/issues/104

and fix would rely on Joda 2.9. Since Joda 2.9 is 4 years old now, and
since Joda has been remarkably good library wrt compatibility, I do
not see change to minimum needed as unreasonable. But I wanted to see
if anyone knew of reasons that this would be problematic.

If so, please let me know.

Otherwise I plan on upgrading baseline, merging the fix.
