API uses outdated bundle packaging

[JanWesterkamp-iJUG]

The Jakarta REST(ful Web Service) API artifact uses an outdated packaging type bundle, which creates several issues. This should be jar (Maven default) instead.

The maven-bundle-plugin configuration may need a refactoring then:

rest/jaxrs-api/pom.xml

I can create a PR, which then need a review (from an OSGi expert at best).

Can you please refer to the actual problems we need to resolve, just for better understanding why we should touch this? Thanks.

Feel free to post a PR. :-)
