Jakarta compatible version of ews-java-api

[paolobazzi]

The ews-java-api library depends on Java EE javax-packages in two classes:

• microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.core.request.ServiceRequestBase
• microsoft.exchange.webservices.data.property.complex.TimeChange

This makes it impossible to use this library on a Java EE Jakarta-based application using version >=9, see https://jakarta.ee/specifications/platform/9/.

We migrated the ews-java-api as local patch for our application.
If there is any interest to provide a Jakarta compatible version of ews-java-api I could provide a pull request with this changes.

You do realise the last commit here was 5 years ago?

Yes of course, that was the reason for this question instead of directly creating a pull request.
As we have a working patch for our application we're fine. I would only create a pull request if there is any interest by other users.

Please create a pull request when you can. Many people are interested.

I added a simple patch - basically just two imports need to be adjusted and the according dependencies needs to be udpated to a jakarta-compatible version.
