Description

Sorry for this question-like type of issue, but when reading though

https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlin-script-examples/blob/d48abed5341ef7cc060a511eb862e06f563a2310/jvm/jsr223/jsr223-simple/src/main/kotlin/org/jetbrains/kotlin/script/examples/jvm/jsr223/simple/repl.kt#L11

I was wondering why there is no `META-INF/services/javax.script.ScriptEngineFactory` file anymore which contains the string `kotlin.script.experimental.jsr223.KotlinJsr223DefaultScriptEngineFactory`. Is this not needed anymore? Since when? Any official docs on that?

Research direction

Start with the referenced repl.kt example and inspect the history around the missing META-INF/services/javax.script.ScriptEngineFactory file. Check the Kotlin scripting documentation and related examples to determine whether KotlinJsr223DefaultScriptEngineFactory registration is still required; done means the issue has an authoritative explanation and linked documentation.
