⚠️ Upgrade notes

Upgrading a child project from 49 usually needs these changes:

• apache-rat-plugin 0.18 (#601): rename child <excludes> to <inputExcludes combine.children="append">; the old parameter is silently ignored. Put that configuration in <pluginManagement> without executions: the parent binds the check only on JDK 17 and newer, and an execution declared in <build><plugins> would run it on older JDKs too, where rat 0.18 fails. After moving the configuration, check that no plugin blocks or **/* globs were lost on the way.
• version.maven-surefire removed: replace @version.maven-surefire@ tokens in invoker ITs with @version.maven-surefire-plugin@.
• maven-surefire-plugin 3.6.0: a console write from a thread without a context class loader (finalizers, dynamically attached agents) fails with NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class ...StackWalkerStrategy (SUREFIRE-3460). Until 3.6.1, set <surefire.version>3.5.6</surefire.version>.
• maven-compiler-plugin 3.16.0 recompiles when dependencies change. A multi-release module whose module-info depends on a sibling module that exists only under META-INF/versions/9 can then fail with module not found in site/javadoc builds (apache/maven-executor#52).
• spotless checks POM formatting on CI; run mvn spotless:apply before pushing.
