Description

as suggested on https://discuss.gradle.org/t/how-to-add-dependencies-for-jaxb-and-jaf-when-migrating-from-java-8-to-java-11/32266/, it would be much better if we used api / implementation instead of compile scoped dependencies.

This would hel to avoid confusions such as e.g. https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/606, and more generally lead to a much cleaner classpath. (See also https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/601.)
