update xercesImpl to 2.12.1 (from 2.12.0)#641

I wonder, if it would be better to use the sha512 sum in this case, as the uploaders pgp key can't be found anywhere. |
|
AFAIK Xerces is ASF project, so the key should be located at http://xerces.apache.org/ somewhere |

Ah, the library was published by @apupier somehow manually (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1724) On the other hand, the file at Central is the same as the one in the official release: So I agree we should use SHA512, and we should use SHA512 for all other xerces jars. |

Thanks for the PR. A version using the SHA512 checksums has been committed to trunk. It would be great, if you could test next build from trunk or nightly. |
Based on patch by Stefan Seide (stefan at trilobyte-se.de) Closes apache#641
Description
within the current xercesImpl version 2.12.0 a vulnerabilities was found. It is fixed with the update to 2.12.1.
Motivation and Context
Fix potential security problems
How Has This Been Tested?
run gradlew check, first run failed with one library (xstream) having changed as expected, rerun with "-PupdateExpectedJars" switch and "-PchecksumUpdate".
The following executions of gradlew check and gradlew test succeeded now.
The update of the checksum was needed because the signer of the xercesImpl release has changed and a new gpg key was used to sign the maven release? (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/XERCESJ-1724)
