Description

We need this in JDev startup when looking for extension.xml files in dependent modules. This is done via OSGi API, but BundleDescription.getRequiredBundles() does not return dependencies of NetBeans modules. So NetBeans module system API needs to be used here. Getting from Dependency to ModuleInfo by collecting all ModuleInfos and iterating through them is needlessly inefficient and also leads to unwanted disk touches during startup.

Proposed findCodeNameBase method
Y01 Add apichanges.xml note
Btw. I am also considering to support add/removeModuleListener. I know there are various places in the NetBeans platform that want to be notified when a set of enabled modules changes (settings, ide.ergonomics, maven). I don't want to tight and delay Tomáš's API request due to the listener support, but if simple, I'd like to implement it.

Also Autoupdate Services could benefit from that API. Created attachment 131261 [details]
