/**
 * Annotate Guice modules with this and GenericApplictionModule will install
 * them if they are on the classpath.  This module will automatically look up
 * any modules registered with @GuiceModule and install them (unless their
 * exact type is in the exclusion list passed to GenericApplictionModule's
 * constructor).
 * <p/>
 * Such modules <i>must</i> have a no-arg constructor or a 1-arg constructor
 * where the argument type is Settings, or a 2-arg constructor in which one
 * argument is Settings and the other is ReentrantScope (since some applications
 * need to do special binding of things within Acteur's request scope).
