Stringified XML config (reading and writing) for Provenance (& reloading)

[edefazio]

in order to have provenance of where the source code was read from (and potentially to reread the same source from the location) I want to

BOTH write out an "xml type" explanation from _batch implementations:
<org.jdraft.io._path>C:\temp\code</org.jdraft.io._path>
<org.jdraft.io._archive>C:\temp\src-jars\javaparser-3.16.0-sources.jar</org.jdraft.io._archive>
...same for github
mavenCentral

this way I can "load" or reload the project based on these... (because I have the className and the information for how to read the data)
