It is finally time to remove devonfw.devonfw-extension-pack entirely from devonfw-ide.
In the last year this plugin has brought more problems than being of any help.
We can maintain the list of underlying plugins in our settings git repo giving projects and users much more flexibility as they can enable or disable each of the underlying plugins according to their needs and potential upcoming problems.
The devonfw.devonfw-extension-pack is a monolithic all in one solution where you can install all or nothing and unfortunately "all" means that it is failing.
It was a nice idea but IMHO the idea does not work out anymore.

Acceptance criteria:

• devonfw.devonfw-extension-pack is removed here
• according underlying plugins are added individually. You can get the list from here
