Use Maven 4 parent inference

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.maven.UseParentInference
Artifactorg.openrewrite:rewrite-maven

Maven 4.1.0 supports automatic parent version inference when using a relative path. This recipe simplifies parent declarations by using the shorthand <parent/> form when the parent is in the default location (..), removing the explicit <relativePath>, <groupId>, <artifactId>, and <version> elements. Maven automatically infers these values from the parent POM.
