Summary

0049242: Update and un-fork xercesImpl.jar xml parser

Description

The currently used xercesImpl-2.9.0-patched.jar file has 2 issues which should be fixed

a.) It is using an outdated version 2.9.0 instead of the latest 2.12.x
That was tried to be updated in issue 44625 which (back then) had to be reverted as it caused problems when running install.source with Java8 (see issue 44999)

b.) We use a (slightly) patched jar instead of the upstream standard file
That is done to carry a local fix/workaround for a split package problem reported in this upstream issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1689 [^]

Reason a.) is obsolete with as Openbravo raised minmum java version to Java11 in 21Q1

Reason b.) is obsolete as latest 2.12.3 includes the fix for XERCESJ-1689

Steps To Reproduce

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1689 [^]

Proposed Solution

Update to latest 2.12.3 version
