support for jakarta

[JLofgren]

I don't understand the XML ecosystem very well, but I gather that jakarta is the successor to a subset of javax, and other tools are moving on to support jakarta. For example, Guice's latest version 7.0.0 only supports jakarta injection. They also released 6.0.0 that works with both javax and jakarta. So, for now, I can only upgrade to Guice to 6.0.0 in my project because play-soap still uses javax injection. Is there intention to move to jakarta?

Play 2.9 will use Guice 6 which supports both javax and jakarta namespaces. The next release after 2.9 will then switch to Guice 7, which only supports jakarta. We are aware of what needs to be done, please see some comments and pull requests I made:
