------------------------------------------

             Summary: Use protobuf 3 Any to avoid reflection during 
serialization
                 Key: SLING-8401
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8401
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Content Distribution
    Affects Versions: Content Distribution Journal Messages 0.1.0
            Reporter: Christian Schneider
             Fix For: Content Distribution Journal Messages 0.1.2


We currently use a home grown deserialization using cutom message properties 
and reflection to be able to mix different message types on the same topic.

In protobuf 3 there is a standard way to do this by using the Any type. This 
stores the type of the message and so allows to deserialize in a straight 
forward way.
