Deprecated.

To model a module in your dependency declarations. Usually you can either declare a single dependency artifact or you declare a module dependency that depends on a module descriptor in a repository. With a client module you can declare a module dependency without the need of a module descriptor in a remote repository.
Client modules dependencies are deprecated and will be removed in Gradle 9.0. Please use component metadata rules instead.
