Stop bundling the Ant and Javadoc plugins.

If you use such a plugin that also relies on the functionality provided by the Ant or Javadoc plugin (e.g., the RAD Builder and manage plugins outside the Jenkins plugin manager, you will now need to ensure that a recent release of the Ant or Javadoc plugin is installed.
Jenkins will attempt to load such plugins but may fail at any time during startup or afterwards with
