Add spring-batch: jobs, steps, chunk processing and restartability on Boot 4.1

Companion code for "Spring Batch on Boot 4.1: Jobs, Steps, Chunk Processing and
Restartability". A productImportJob configured three ways by profile against a
poisoned CSV row, run as real java -jar processes (not just JUnit) so the
restart story is genuine: a chunk fails and rolls back, the process exits, a
brand-new JVM against the same file-based H2 database resumes at the exact
next unread row (READ_COUNT 20, not 60) and completes.

Findings the build pins:
- StepBuilder.chunk(int, PlatformTransactionManager) still compiles in Batch
  6.0.5 but returns the legacy SimpleStepBuilder; chunk(int) returns the new
  ChunkOrientedStepBuilder, and only the latter is used here.
- Two different ExecutionContext classes now exist in two different packages
  (infrastructure.item vs core.repository.persistence) with different shapes.
- spring-boot-starter-batch alone gives a resourceless JobRepository that
  forgets every JobInstance the moment the JVM exits; spring-boot-starter-
  batch-jdbc is what makes the restart demo possible at all, demonstrated by
  excluding BatchJdbcAutoConfiguration and watching a "restart" collide with
  the previous run's own data instead of resuming it.
- A migration-guide summary claiming CommandLineJobRunner was removed in 6.0
  is wrong -- javap against the real jar shows @Deprecated(forRemoval=true),
  not removed.
- RepeatStatus moved from core.repeat to infrastructure.repeat, caught by the
  compiler rather than by reading docs.

11 documentation chapters, 10 captured transcripts (unit tests, javap output,
and real two-JVM scenario runs), all regenerated by scripts/run-all.sh.

Fixed after push: three dead docs.spring.io links in the doc chapters
(readersAndWriters/* and chunk-oriented-processing/*.html paths moved when
Spring Batch 6 reorganized its reference docs; corrected to the current
readers-and-writers/*, processor.html and chunk-oriented-processing.html
paths, verified 200 via curl before committing).

# Why skip(DataIntegrityViolationException.class) also catches the duplicate-key case
thrown type : org.springframework.dao.DuplicateKeyException
is a DataIntegrityViolationException? true
H2's JdbcBatchUpdateException on a UNIQUE-constraint violation is translated by
Spring's SQLExceptionSubclassTranslator into DuplicateKeyException, which extends
DataIntegrityViolationException. A skip policy configured against the parent class
catches the subclass too -- see docs/07-restartability.md and docs/08-skip-vs-restart.md.

run 1 ever happened, so it tries the whole job again and collides with what run 1 already

which ImportRunner treats as "nothing to do" -- see docs/07-restartability.md.
