Description

This is a contribution of a new component that represents a XML data format backed by Jackson. Jackson offers XML databind capabilities.

See here the project for background: https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-dataformat-xml

The motivation to bring in yet another XML data format is that this format is very easy to work with in ad hoc scenarios, with no schema or POJO in place. I also can profess that Woodstox and Jackson are of very high quality and very well maintained, and thus my tools of choice. Bringing them to Camel is a joy.

Dependencies:
jackson-dataformat-xml: ASL 2.0 licensed (see here: https://github.com/FasterXML/jackson-dataformat-xml/wiki)
woodstox: ASL 2.0 licensed

Patch:

All dependencies are available as OSGi bundles.
