2.4 requires Jakarta EE 9

[wilkinsona]

This was originally reported as a Spring Boot issue. It looks like the problem was introduced in this commit which accidentally upgraded a number of Jakarta EE dependencies to their EE 9 versions.

Looking at the code, I couldn't find any direct usage of the EE 9 dependencies, other than one in buildSrc:

$  find . -name "*.java" | xargs grep "import jakarta"
./buildSrc/src/test/resources/samples/integrationtest/withpropdeps/src/integration-test/java/sample/TheTest.java:import jakarta.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;

In addition to correcting the version numbers, perhaps some dependencies could be removed altogether?

I believe there is one here as well:

core/src/main/java/org/springframework/ldap/support/LdapEncoder.java:import jakarta.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter

That's true for the main branch but not, AFAICT, for 2.4.x and main should be using EE 9 dependencies.
