[MNG-7266] Remove maven-compat module

**[Guillaume Nodet](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=gnt)** opened **[MNG-7266](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7266?redirect=false)** and commented

Maven-core does not depend on maven-compat anymore (runtime or compile time). Do we want to carry it over up to 4.0.0 and delete it in 4.1.0, or do we want to drop it before 4.0.0 ?
