FAQ answer on CDATA uses deprecated solution

[Tomas-Kraus]

https://jaxb.dev.java.net/faq/index.html#marshalling_cdata suggests using Apache Xerces-J XMLSerializer, which is deprecated as of version 2.9.

Is there another method of achieving the same results that isn't deprecated?

@glassfishrobot Commented tjstavenger said: Xerces-J offers the following replacements for the classes in the org.apache.xml.serialize package: http://xerces.apache.org/xerces2-j/faq-general.html#faq-6

However, from what I can tell, neither the LSSerializer nor the Transformer classes fit well into the JAXB API. In particular, neither implement the ContentHandler interface to change the text elements to CDATA while marshalling.

This leaves an implementation with two options:

1. Use the Sun internal implementation at com.sun.org.apache.xml.internal.serialize

2. Use the deprecated Xerces-J implementation

Neither of which are good solutions long-term.
