ModelConverter fails on certain class definitions due to Java 8 and below limitations.

[dpogretskiy]

    sealed abstract class Status(val id: String) {
      def self: Status = this
    }
    case object New extends Status("new")
    case object Processed extends Status("processed")

Using this kind of constructions in model definitions leads to errors on Java 8 and below.

It uses jackson ModelConverter and crashes whole plugin.
