Migrate web.xml to WebApplicationInitializer
io.moderne.java.spring.framework.webxml.WebXmlToWebApplicationInitializerArtifactio.moderne.recipe:rewrite-springMigrate web.xml to WebApplicationInitializer for Spring applications. This allows for programmatic configuration of the web application context, replacing the need for XML-based configuration. This recipe only picks up web.xml files located in the src/main/webapp/WEB-INF directory to avoid inference with tests. It creates a WebXmlWebAppInitializer class in src/main/java with respect to submodules if they contain java files. **If it finds an existing WebXmlWebAppInitializer, it skips the creation**.
