    Thanks @mcgilman and @joewitt . I rebased against `1.5.0-SNAPSHOT master`, 
added the explicit dependency on `jackson-core` in 
`nifi-solr-processors/pom.xml` and removed `jackson-databind` from the 
`<dependencyManagement>` block in `nifi/pom.xml` and explicitly referenced the 
`${jackson.version}` variable throughout the children poms. The full build 
works, and I verified that not only does it compile, the project seems to be 
able to correctly perform JSON parsing in a variety of ways (used [this 
template](https://gist.github.com/alopresto/63c087854c5300f7c0763ce118c1eef6)) 
to verify.

    I still need to evaluate if 
`org.codehaus.jackson:jackson-mapper-asl:1.9.13` is used anywhere, as 
discussion between @mcgilman and myself [revealed it is replaced by 
`com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-core:2.9.1`](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.codehaus.jackson/jackson-mapper-asl/1.9.13).
