Improved pom.xml analysis

MTR can search for artifacts within the parent, dependencyManagement, dependencies, pluginManagement and plugin blocks.

YAML file source code report

The Source Code Report is compatible with YAML files, so migration issues can be highlighted in the context of the YAML file in which they were discovered.

Transaction Report (Tech Preview)

A new transaction report is now available in the application analysis reports. This new option analyzes the application data layer and provides detailed information about how transactions propagate across different layers. The report presents the information as a sequence of service entries, call graphs and SQL statements.
