(note: this is retroactive issue -- actual removal done before 3.0.0-rc1 release) (note: inspired by #5269)

With 3.0, ObjectMapper becomes immutable: this is achieved by removing all setXxx() methods (and other mutators). This includes setSerializationInclusion().

The replacement for:

ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
mapper.setSerializationInclusion(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL);

is

ObjectMapper mapper = JsonMapper.builder()
    .changeDefaultPropertyInclusion(incl -> incl.withValueInclusion(JsonInclude.Include.NON_NULL)
    .build();

NOTE: it may make sense to create an umbrella issue for "make ObjectMapper immutable"?
