> Tez has many occurrences of jackson dependencies in its dep tree, however none of them is direct:
> {code}
>  lbodor@HW12459  ~/apache/tez   master  mvn dependency:tree | grep jackson | wc -l
>      204
> {code}
> This is misleading, because tez protobuf history plugin does depend on jackson mapper, so it should have jackson as a direct dependency.
> Similarly to other dependencies, transitive deps can also trigger security scan alerts, complaining about outdated jackson dependencies. It would be cleaner to:
> 1. completely remove unused transitive jackson depdendencies and re-add them in test scope where it's needed for clarity's sake
> 2. include jackson as direct dependency where it's used (this could move focus to that place when there is a need for an upgrade)
