Roadmap for 2.0

Dependencies upgrades

• Spring 5 we don't manage this dependency, but our picks should be largely compatible with this version
• Hibernate 5
• Tomcat 9
• Servlet API 4
• Log4j 2.19 and SLF4J 2 (blocker Apache POI does not work with Log4j 2.19.0 baseCode#25)
• remove Javassist and possibly add Byte Buddy explicitly (it's imported by Hibernate 5)
• eliminate baseCode dependency management to avoid circularity (though allowed since this is done through dependency management, a true dependency would make Maven bark)

I think we can entertain moving to the Jakarta namespace, but at this stage Hibernate 6 and Spring 6 are not ready for production.
