Jakarta artifacts/compatibility

[Romain Manni-Bucau]

Hi everyone,

I did the work to add (thanks shade plugin) jakarta artifact to
geronimo-json_1.1, geronimo_jsonb_1.0 and our beloved johnzon.

Globally you can use that:

    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
            <artifactId>geronimo-json_1.1_spec</artifactId>
            <version>1.4-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <classifier>jakarta</classifier>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.geronimo.specs</groupId>
            <artifactId>geronimo-jsonb_1.0_spec</artifactId>
            <version>1.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <classifier>jakarta</classifier>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.johnzon</groupId>
            <artifactId>johnzon-core</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.5-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <classifier>jakarta</classifier>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>*</groupId>
                    <artifactId>*</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.johnzon</groupId>
            <artifactId>johnzon-mapper</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.5-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <classifier>jakarta</classifier>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>*</groupId>
                    <artifactId>*</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.johnzon</groupId>
            <artifactId>johnzon-jsonb</artifactId>
            <version>1.2.5-SNAPSHOT</version>
            <classifier>jakarta</classifier>
            <exclusions>
                <exclusion>
                    <groupId>*</groupId>
                    <artifactId>*</artifactId>
                </exclusion>
            </exclusions>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

and then use jakarta API:

import jakarta.json.bind.Jsonb;
import jakarta.json.bind.JsonbBuilder;

record Bar(int age, String name) {}

public class Run {
    public static void main(final String[] args) throws Exception {
        try (final Jsonb jsonb = JsonbBuilder.create()) {
            final String json = jsonb.toJson(new Bar(1, "foo"));
            System.out.println(json);
            final Bar deserialized = jsonb.fromJson(json, Bar.class);
            System.out.println(deserialized);
        }
    }
}

(yes I used java 14 preview for this sample)

I wonder if it is worth a release to add jakarta artifacts. If so I can
handle geronimo ones easily and johnzon too if nobody has time to do it.

Wdyt?
