Recipe to Add JAX-WS Dependencies to a Maven Build

[tkvangorder]

The JAX-WS API is used for creating soap-based services and clients. This library is no longer packaged with the Java Runtime and this recipe will ensure the proper external dependencies are added to an existing Maven build.

The two dependencies that are added (if a project uses JAXB) are:

      groupId: jakarta.xml.ws
      artifactId: jakarta.xml.ws-api
      version: 2.3.x

      groupId: com.sun.xml.ws
      artifactId: jaxws-rt
      version: 2.3.x

This recipe will also remove an older artifact (javax.xml.ws:jaxws-api) as it is now superseded by the jakarta library.

On hold, adding the dependency is simple to do, but adding the plugin requires openrewrite/rewrite#585.

There is initial support for updating the jax-ws artifacts in a maven-based build.
