This commit eliminates some custom logic we have in place for post-hoc
cleanup of POM files generated by Gradle. There were to main issues this
logic was meant to address:
First, for dependencies marked as
transitive = false, Gradle bydefault creates a "wildcard" exclusion in the generated POM file. It
turns out that Ivy didn't handle these types of exclusions well, even
though they are perfectly valid and dealt with by Gradle and Maven as
expected. We've since confirmed that this issues is indeed resolved in
the most recent Ivy release (2.5.0-rc1) so going forward the suggestion
to folks consuming Elasticsearch dependencies with Ivy will be to use
this version.
Second, earlier versions of Gradle would incorrectly assign compile
dependencies to the "runtime" scope in the publish POM file. This could
cause issues if the dependencies were indeed needed at compile time
because their APIs were exposed. This has since been fixed and these
dependencies are correctly marked as "compile" scope in the POM.
Since these two issues have been resolved in their respective projects
we can eliminate this logic and all the supporting code, such as having
to create lots of "internal" configurations for tracking transitive
dependencies.
Closes #44363
