System modules
A system module is a module shipped with the platform. An application project pulls these modules in via REQUIRE and uses their declarations (classes, properties, actions, forms) as a ready-made standard library; the platform never expects them to be redefined.
System modules live under server/src/main/lsfusion/ in the platform repository: core modules under the system/ subfolder, additional utility modules under utils/. The System module is pulled into every project build automatically; the rest require an explicit REQUIRE.
