Upcoming GlassFish 7.1 release overview

[OndroMih]

Hi all, since a new GlassFish 7.1 release is coming soon, I'd like to visually summarize what's coming.

A lot of the improvements and changes coming in GlassFish 7.1 are based on #25225 post by @dmatej, a GlassFish project lead. Although GlassFish 7.1 was initially planned around half of the year 2025, it took a longer to tune everything together and make sure that everything works as it should and passes all the tests. The changes in Maven Central deployments and adjustments needed to run the Jakarta EE TCK against GlassFish 7.1 delayed this release. Meanwhile, we also stopped releasing new versions of the 7.0.x branch to fully focus on GlassFish 7.1 and GlassFish 8.
