[DEV-review: Michi, pending] Centralized Dependency Management for third-party modules (BOM)

Following the release of Magnolia 5.5.7, In Magnolia 5.6.x allows you can optionally to define third-party dependencies in a different way. Previously, dependency management information about third-party modules was defined in the parent poms of magnolia.main and magnolia.ui . You may now use a software BOM (Bill of materials) project instead. The project can then be imported in all modules. This ensures that the versions of the third-party modules are the same.
