Description

I'm using org.testcontainers:postgresql:1.11.3 dependency and it has no Automatic-Module-Name manifest attribute. It leads to module name conflict, as module name for the dependency is just postgres.

Please add this attribute to all published artifacts. For postgresql it can be smth like testcontainers.postgresql.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add the Automatic Module Name attribute to the MANIFEST.MF file for each published artifact. This can be done in Maven by configuring the maven jar plugin's archive/manifestEntries section, or in Gradle by configuring the jar task's manifest attributes. For the postgresql module, use the suggested name 'testcontainers.postgresql'. Ensure all submodules are updated similarly.
