Migrate from deprecated/EOL Commons Lang 2 to Commons Lang 3.

Part of the effort to remove Commons Lang 2 from Jenkins core — jenkinsci/jenkins#16404,
jenkinsci/jenkins#26105. Commons Lang 2 is EOL and carries an unfixed advisory
(GHSA-j288-q9x7-2f5v).

What's changed

  • Renamed the org.apache.commons.lang.* imports to org.apache.commons.lang3.* and declared
    io.jenkins.plugins:commons-lang3-api (substringAfter and ExceptionUtils.getStackTrace have no
    clean JDK equivalent).
  • StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml (4 call sites) moves to
    org.apache.commons.text.StringEscapeUtils.escapeHtml4 via io.jenkins.plugins:commons-text-api
    Lang 3's copy is deprecated, so this goes straight to Commons Text.

Testing done

mvn -B -ntp clean verify passes locally on Java 21 / macOS.

The ban-commons-lang-2 enforcer rule was left disabled: it needs parent POM 6.2116.v7501b_67dc517 or newer, and parent 6.x requires Jenkins 2.475+
(Jakarta EE 9) while this plugin targets 2.332.1.

Note: mvn clean verify needs JDK 17 here — on JDK 21 maven-license-plugin 1.10 fails with
Unsupported class file major version 65, unrelated to this change.
