Summary

0011033: API checks on minor versions of modules

Description

Our current policy for releasing new versions of modules is to increase the minor version if there isn't changes in the API of the module. However, we don't check it in any place.

Not checking API changes in modules is very dangerous, specially when using dependencies, since a module can stop working if any of its dependencies has changed its own API.

For ensuring our policy of module's version is working properly, we must check API changes whenever we release a new minor version of a module. In case a module has changed its own API in a minor version, the Central Repository should deny to upload the module.
