Jackson Release 2.4.6

Patch version of [2.4](Jackson Release 2.4), not yet released (as of 26 Mar 2015).

Most likely the last release version of 2.4.x branch, since 2.5.0 was released before this release; and since 2.3 will be a long-running branch (due to compatibility reasons). 2.4.x on the other hand may be retired since 2.5.1 is already out.
