Summary: Ensure JAX-RS usable features don't depend on jaxws
Key: CXF-8053

Project: CXF
Issue Type: Improvement

discussion.
Idea is to not force JAXRS users to depend on jaxws in terms of dependency.
Whereas it was acceptable for java <= 8, it is now impacting in java >= 9 since
jaxws is no more part of the JRE.
Proposal is to: drop the WebServiceFeature dependency in the AbstractFeature
hierarchy by introducing a CxfBaseFeature keeping backward compatibility,
provide native implementations of all feature and replace current
implementations by plain delegation to the new one - to ensure existing users
still have a functional setup. JAXRS users would use the new class and JAXWS
ones can use the new one (probably preferred by javadoc) or the old one for
compatibility.
