Informational PR presenting candidate implementation of various feature requests (#9, #10, #11 and #12)

[bascarsija]

This PR covers the following feature requests.

• Use private access for model member fields #9
• The ObjectMapper used by GrafanaClient should enable ACCEPT_SINGLE_VALUE_AS_ARRAY #10
• Use a common base class for all model classes that provides a way to transparently preserve unrecognized fields (via @JsonAnySetter/@JsonAnyGetter) #11
• Provide additional model classes that are currently missing (e.g. annotations, panel links, series overrides, etc.) #12

Separate PRs can be made to address each feature request according to interest and after discussion of suitability/viability.

Hi, is there any chance of pushing this pull request forward? I could fix the ci build as the fail was caused by checkstyle errors. Who should I contact?

Edit: Pinging @skoka-anx as they were the last person to merge anything here.

i'm going to be frank with you @k-kalinowski, i've effectively abandoned this project and forked a de-lomboked version of it for internal uses.

i encourage you, however, to address any CI build failures that arose along the way, as i imagine they were trivial, and i do believe that the features i created issues for provide value for the project.

Apologies for the lateness. We haven't really been keeping up with this repo as we should. Feel free to use the fork that you've created for new development and features. This repo may not be maintained any more.
