FELIX-6750 Try out Jetty 12.1.0 in Felix HTTP

[paulrutter]

• 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT
• Use jetty 12.1.0-alpha1
• Add org.eclipse.jetty.compression.* to exports
• Add dependency on jetty-compression-gzip (not sure if this is required, maybe only for the client) and jetty-compression-common

This branch is based on EE11 (servlet API 6.1).

@cziegeler i did a first attempt on getting the http.jetty12 bundle to using Jetty 12.1.0 (servlet API 6.1).

Once it's GA we can revisit and check the open ends (like the servlet-api bundle failing on the baseline phase, we might need to remove version 5.0 and 6.0 from this bundle to get this resolved, as the servlet API actually changed in 6.1).

Thanks, thats great.
Your changes to the servlet-api bundle look good - we always include the latest version (6.1 in this case) and export it as all earlier versions (5 and 6 in this case). While this is not 100% correct, it is usually good enough as the versions are compatible and code is not compiled against this bundle - it is just used at runtime.
There is of course the exception of servlet 6 which is not fully compatible to servlet 5 - due to removed methods -but we have that problem already today.
