"org.opengis" package name collision resolved

Hello all

The GeoTools project released GeoTools 30 [1], which contains a renaming 
of their "org.opengis" packages to "org.geotools.api". Thanks to this 
renaming, it should now be possible to have Apache SIS or PROJ-JNI 
libraries to coexist with GeoTools in the same JVM. There is nothing to 
change for Apache SIS or PROJ-JNI users, the conflict was a GeoTools 
problem to be resolved on their side.

However the communication of GeoTools PMC about GeoAPI history is still 
misleading, and sometime false. I added a "GeoTools 30 release" section 
in the bottom of the GeoAPI history page at [2] for responding to 3 
false claims. This page contains references to OGC and mailing list 
archives for allowing readers to verify by themselves.
