[CONTROLLER-1998] Archive the Blueprint component

Blocks — Thu, 9 Feb 2023 00:11:04 +0000

Service Component Runtime provides much better ergonomics with regard to code layout and lifecycle. Most notably it forces proper service separation and is annotation-driven. Having wiring in code also allows the code to not be tailored to a single framework, either.

There are only a few places in controller, which actually are still using blueprint – and we use those as integration tests, mostly.

Gradually reduce dependencies on our blueprint plugin extension and its overall exposure to downstreams, culminating in its removal.
