Nikolay Chashnikov 4158e45854 [plugin model] use 'public' visibility for content modules which have plugin aliases (IJPL-207059)
Such modules can be referenced not by a 'dependencies.module' tag, but via a 'depends' or 'dependencies.plugin' tag with the plugin alias, so they should be public. 'jetbrains' namespace is used for them.
