* Adjust the design of the encoding provision module to enable its lazy
  construction from genotypes when a new instance is generated by the
  Opt4J framework.
* Fix a copy bug in the instantiated task mapping encodings where the
  allocation maps were not aligned.
* Fixup the calculation of the constraint that ensures only tasks with
  the same SIL are allocated to one partition.
* Remove no longer required copy operators.
* Bug fix: Correct the references to the included Opt4J jars.

* The operator selection is now embedded in the Opt4J framework, so
  remove all code in this plugin related to that feature.
* The previous implementation was buggy such that multiple operators
  could be bound to one genotype, but only one of them was executed per
  exploration run (random selection).
* Fixing these issues in this plugin would have been a suboptimal
  solution since the required selection logic would need to be
  duplicated in each module binding multiple operators.

* Move the debug plotter to the Explorer.
* Only return ExplorationTargets from the original input specification
  instead of internal ones to avoid containment issues.

* Deprecates the IConstraintEncoding.
* The "framework" holds the initial or generated constraints (by
  decoders) and allows to query them for the construction or their
  modification.
* Constraints are associated with Genotype instances to restrict the
  modifications applied to them.
* Constraints are associated with Phenotype types such that constraints
  can be declared before the instance are constructed in order to make
  the construction operations aware of the constraints to be applied.

* Currently, the SuperSet of ExecutionUnits is not compatible with
  hierarchical platfroms, since the mapping targets cannot be selected.
  Until the DSE Project has been reworked, identify the mapping targets
  by an allocation pattern over all tasks.
* Add a utility method that identifies a corresponding constraint and
  extracts the ExecutionUnits targets from it.
* Consider the aforementioned allocation pattern to define the input set
  before triggering the DSE:

* Replaces the identification of "evaluate" methods by a custom
  annotation that takes the parent Evaluator class as its argument to
  differentiate between evaluate methods across Evaluator boundaries.
  This is required by the binding mechanism of Guice.
* Not yet ported Evaluators are not aligned with the new Annotation.
* Bug Fixes:
** Register the MappingConstraintEvaluator.
** Correct the constructor of the MappingConstraintEvaluator.
** Fix parameter list of its evaluate method.
