That bundle is an implementation artifact and is not to be used by
applications. Since applications can't always use the version of ASM
that server requires, we have to hide the version that server requires.
We do so by using those extra attributes. Only people who deploy OSGi
bundles can use that bundle if they suitably specify the import headers
in their bundles, but that does not apply to normal web app deployment.
Since your Jersy based app needs ASM, you should do *one* of the following:
1. Copy appropriate version of asm.jar to domain1/lib and restart server.
2. Copy appropriate version of asm.jar to domain1/lib/applib/asm.jar.
Then asadmin deploy <your app> --libraries asm.jar.
3. Bundle appropriate version of asm.jar in your application.
