Is there a way for a bundle to provide all packages from a library?
Something similar to library/export name="*" found in plugin.xml?

Currently no. We have debated this but found that it is not particularly
useful. Tooling (e.g., PDE) can take care of that. Otherwise the runtime
would have ot have/run jar analysis code to determine what packages are
being provided (the underlying mechanisms require this information for
efficiency purposes)

Note that currently PDE does not have this function but most people are
expected to continue writing plugin.xmls and these will be converted under
the covers for you.
