Cumulative Drupal 9 Compatibility Patches.

Cumulative Drupal 9 Compatibility Patches.

This MR combines the Drupal 9 compatibility patch from:

https://www.drupal.org/project/ms_ajax_form_example/issues/3117909#comment-13752939

with a patch to the core_version_requirement in info.yml allowing the module to be installed on Drupal 9.

It is useful to have an issue fork for Drupal 9 compatibility, rather than simply a patch, because:

In short, you can't use a patch to tell Composer that a Drupal 8 module is compatible with Drupal 9.

Adding Issue Fork as a Composer repository:

To use this issue fork as a transitional D9-compatible package in your project, modify your composer.json:

    "repositories": {
        "drupal/ms_ajax_form_example": {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "https://git.drupalcode.org/issue/ms_ajax_form_example-3117909"
        },
        "drupal": {
          "type": "composer",
          "url": "https://packages.drupal.org/8",
          "exclude": ["drupal/ms_ajax_form_example"]
        },

Requiring the patched package from the Issue Fork:

Execute the following command in a terminal:

$ composer require drupal/ms_ajax_form_example:dev-3117909-call-to-deprecated

or manually add the requirement to composer.json:

    "require": {
        "drupal/ms_ajax_form_example": "dev-3117909-call-to-deprecated",
