Add Neo4j Cypher DSL (Parser) to managed version

[abccbaandy]

Currently if I want add this dependency
https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.neo4j/neo4j-cypher-dsl-parser
I have to handle the version manually.

But since we have SDN, can SDN handle for me?
I want use like this(without version)

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.neo4j</groupId>
    <artifactId>neo4j-cypher-dsl-parser</artifactId>
</dependency>

SDN would declare the parser module than as hard dependency. We could add a BOM project here in the future and I leave this ticket open, but that's not going to happen this year anymore.

Until then, import the Cypher-DSL BOM into your project

<dependencyManagement>
    <dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.neo4j</groupId>
            <artifactId>neo4j-cypher-dsl-bom</artifactId>
            <version>${cypher-dsl.version}</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
</dependencyManagement>

Use 2024.2.x or later for SDN 7.4
2023.9.x or later for SDN 7.3 and 7.2

Hi @michael-simons
Just for confirm, I still need to hardcode the version with this way, right?

[michael-simons]

Yeah, but at least you have to do this only once and will cover the dependency SDN bring in, too.

Expect a BOM for SDN at some time :)
