Can't compile with Java17

XMLUtil is using JAXContext, which is not part of Java17 anymore. it seems like the only place actually needing this is XMLUtil, but which can be plugged-in, but it also contains some non-XML related methods (getMonth, getWeekday). It seems like master is broken - I couldn't create a PR to fix it myself.

If you need java 17 than you could try https://github.com/focus-shift/jollyday it is based on java 11 and the builds are running up to 17.

Any possibility of updating Jollyday to include Java 17 compatibility? We got a pretty definitive answer that the fork won't support Java 8, but Stanford CoreNLP still supports Java 8.
