While testing ASM,
i've found that you can not currently load a module that has a '+' in its name.

According to the spec [1] section 2.1, the module name is a name in its
internal form (JVMS 4.2.1)
so it's a sequence of unicode characters (beside '.', ';', '[' and '/')
separated by '/'.
So '+' is a valid character.
The code that checks the name of a module is in
jdk.internal.module.Checks::requireModuleName and it checks that the name is a
valid Java identifier which is obviously wrong.
The module name of a module-info.java is a java identifier because it is parsed
by javac but a module name in a module-info.class is encoded a binary name to
not add restrictions to module names defined by other languages than Java.
There is also a pending spec issue [2] to make a module name a unicode sequence
of any characters and not a binary name removing the restriction around the
characters ('.', ';', '[').
For '/', it's a little different because if a module name allows '/', the
encoding of the option '--module' of the java executable becomes ambiguous.
