Description

The "params" add-on should be moved out of zaproxy core to allow for easier upgrades/enhancements.

https://github.com/zaproxy/zaproxy/tree/main/zap/src/main/java/org/zaproxy/zap/extension/params

The initial PR has already been opened:

Outstanding tasks:

[!NOTE]
Currently for testing purposes it's necessary to manually disable the core extension in ZAP's options (https://www.zaproxy.org/docs/desktop/ui/dialogs/options/ext/). (I will look at only loading/enabling the new one when core functionality is deprecated/disabled, in another PR if needed depending on timing etc.)
