fix: remove broken tests based on jetty-runner (#354)

* tests based on jetty-runner do not work because
  the jetty-runner JAR contains invalid Java SPI services config files
* due to these invalid files Jetty 11.0.20+ is unable to properly
  initialize itself itself
* This change removes all tests based on jetty-runner
  and bumps the Jetty version to 11.0.24
* There are already jobs using the Jetty Maven plugin to
  launch a testing instance + run all tests
