resilience: prove spring-boot-starter-aop was renamed to spring-boot-starter-aspectj, not removed

Maven Central's maven-metadata.xml for both artifact IDs, read together, shows aop's last
release is 4.0.0-M2 and aspectj's first release is 4.0.0-M3 -- a rename at a milestone
boundary, not a drop. The renamed starter's own published POM depends on exactly
spring-aop + aspectjweaver, the two jars this pom.xml's dependency comment already claimed
were needed; this commit adds the reproducible build-break proof, the metadata/POM evidence,
and a new doc chapter, and backs the corrected companion-repo links from the resilience4j-
circuit-breaker-spring-boot post.

The renamed starter's own POM declares exactly spring-aop + aspectjweaver as compile
dependencies -- the same two jars this module's own pom.xml already lists as the reason it
depends on spring-boot-starter-aspectj. There is no missing third piece and no behavioural
difference from assembling the two jars by hand; the starter just does it for you, correctly
versioned, in one line.
